Located 1,000 meters northeast of Maoling Mausoleum, Huo Qubing's tomb (霍去病墓)?is a cone-shaped soil and rock mound, adjacent to the Maoling Museum, and surrounded by a scenic landscape. Born in the first year of the reign of Emperor Wu Di (140 BC), Huo Qubing was a young military expert during the Western Han Dynasty. He led his troops beyond the Great Wall six times to fight the Xiongnu (Hun) who had repeatedly been infringing on Han Dynasty territory, finally defeating the Hun aggressors.

To commemorate the outstanding achievements of Huo's life, Emperor Wu Di directed that natural rocks and stones be piled to cover the surface of his tomb. The tomb mass symbolized Qilian Mountain and memorialized Huo's brilliant service in battle on the mountain. In addition, various kinds of large-size carved stone animals were placed in front of and on the tomb mound, including horses, bulls, tigers and fish.
