The Great Mausoleum of Yi Zhuang, originally known as the "Refugee Tomb of the Common Good" or "Yi Zhuang Great Mausoleum", is commonly referred to as the "Tucheng Great Mausoleum" or simply "Great Mausoleum". It is a renowned tomb and temple of the Should-gods in northern Taiwan. According to legend, during the Qing dynasty, the indigenous peoples of the Tucheng and Banqiao areas would often raid Han Chinese settlements, stealing money and food. However, the local residents would offer sacrifices to the Great Mausoleum, and subsequently, the indigenous peoples would be repelled. As a result, the local settlers would offer a portion of their land rent as incense money, leading to a prosperous and thriving cult following. This site has become a shared spiritual center for the Hokkien and Zhangzhou descendants in Tucheng, Zhonghe, and Banqiao.
