Brief:
The Temple of Heaven is another landmark of Beijing, and the Hall of Prayer for Good
Harvest is the symbol of Beijing Tourism. The place was first built in 1420, and served as a
vast sacred place to worship and offering sacrifices to the god of Heaven for the emperors.

The Temple of Heaven covers an area of 273 hectares, although the main building only
occupy one twentieth of the whole park land. All of them have their own characteristics and
rich in symbolism. Ancient Chinese belifes like " Sircular Heaven, Sqaure Earth", "Supernal
Heaven", and " Blue Sky, Yellow Earth" are all exqusitely reflected here.

Today the Temple of Heaven Park is alive iwth people playing cards, walting to music
blaring from small stereos, playing musical instruments, practicing opera or just sitting and
chat. The park is a great place to see how retired locals spend their leisure time.
