Imperial Ancestral Temple | No time to go to the Forbidden City, where to see the snow scene

On weekdays, I don't want to take annual leave to go to the Forbidden City, and I don't want to miss the combination of ancient buildings and snow scenes. It's okay, there are many ancient buildings in Beijing, just go to the Imperial Ancestral Temple. The red walls and golden tiles, the white marble steps, the flame looking at the column head, the heavy eaves and the roof, the He Xi painting, the three intersections and six bowls of diamond windows, also mean that. The Imperial Ancestral Temple was built in the Ming Dynasty and was a place where the emperors of the Ming and Qing Dynasties worshipped the emperors and meritorious generals of the past dynasties. Its original site was Baoan Temple, which was rebuilt and renovated many times to form the current scale and pattern. The objects of worship in this temple include 188 emperors from the Three Emperors and Five Emperors to the end of the Ming Dynasty, and 79 meritorious generals. The Imperial Ancestral Temple is the only existing temple in our country that worships the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, the emperors of the past dynasties, and the civil and military officials of the Ming and Qing Dynasties. It is a national key cultural relics protection unit. Address: No. 131, Fuchengmennei Street, Xicheng District, Beijing.
