Temple of Heaven Park, the largest ancient sacrificial building complex in China

Address: No. 1 Tiantan East Road, Dongcheng District, Beijing. The Temple of Heaven is a special altar for the emperors of the Ming and Qing dynasties to worship heaven, pray for rain, and pray for a good harvest. It is divided into two parts: the inner altar and the outer altar, mainly including the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests, the Hall of Imperial Heaven, etc. It is the place where the emperors of the Ming and Qing dynasties worshiped the emperor and prayed for a good harvest. It is especially worth noting that the Temple of Heaven is the general name of the Circular Mound Altar and the Altar of Prayer for Grain. There are two layers of altar walls, forming an inner and outer altar. The altar walls are round in the south and north, symbolizing the round sky and the square earth. The Echo Wall is also worth a visit.
