The garden is filled with thousands of blooming peach trees, and the Ci Bei An is shrouded in incense smoke

"Ci Bei An" is located in Beijing's Taoranting Park. It was first built during the Yuan Dynasty and opened to the public in 1979. The temple complex consists of four courtyards. The front courtyard has two halls, with the main buildings being the Guanyin Hall, Zhunti Hall, Wenchang Pavilion, and Taoran Pavilion. The temple also houses two ancient stone scriptures from the Liao and Jin Dynasties. Since the Ming Dynasty, Ci Bei An has been a place of leisure for scholars and notable figures. Its popularity increased after the construction of Taoran Pavilion during the Qing Dynasty. In modern times, it became famous due to its association with many renowned patriots and revolutionaries, such as Lin Zexu, Sun Yat-sen, Li Dazhao, Mao Zedong, and Zhou Enlai. Therefore, Taoranting's Ci Bei An is known as the "Cradle of the People's Revolution."
