The Tomb of the Emperor is the burial place of Emperor Xiaojing of the Eastern Wei Dynasty. According to history books, he was talented in both literature and martial arts, and was a man of high moral character, but did not leave any great achievements in history, because from the beginning he was a puppet emperor.

After people discovered the strange sound of the stairs in the tomb, they all found it hard to believe. Some people even speculated that this could be the thousand-year-old curse of resentment left by Emperor Xiaojing.

Many rumors were created and quickly spread in the area, causing a stir in the whole area. Many people even traveled to the place to verify this strange noise for themselves.

This also attracted experts to come to the site to study and research. After studying, they quickly revealed the mystery of the sound of running water on the stairs.

First, the expert confirmed that the noise had nothing to do with Emperor Xiaojing. In terms of the stairs' specifications, it had a total height of about 23.9 meters, a width of about 5 meters, and a total of 109 steps.

The bricks that make up the steps have not been polished, the surface is rough. The angle between the steps and the ground is about 50 degrees, distributed relatively evenly, forming many surfaces that reflect and refract sound waves uniformly.

The sound of footsteps of many people walking up the stairs of the Emperor's mausoleum is a special physical phenomenon. It may be just a coincidence of many factors that creates the sound like flowing water drops.

After experts explained the strange sound made by the stairs, tourists from all over the world became more and more interested in the stairs of Thien Tu Mausoleum. Many people wanted to come here to witness and experience the magic of these stairs with their own eyes.
