Alice's Friend Kaia Loves The Temple Of Heaven. ❤⛪

very interested place

Compared with the Forbidden City, there are a lot less people, but there are less people and it is more suitable for slowly discovering and feeling! (Autumn is the best time to appreciate the capital)

Earth was represented by a square and Heaven by a circle; several features of the temple complex symbolize the connection of Heaven and Earth, of circle and square. The whole temple complex is surrounded by two cordons of walls; the outer wall has a taller, semi-circular northern end, representing Heaven, and a shorter, rectangular southern end, representing the Earth. Both the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests and the Circular Mound Altar are round, each standing on a square yard, again representing Heaven and Earth. The number nine represents the Emperor and is evident in the design of the Circular Mound Altar: a single round marmor plate is surrounded by a ring of nine plates, then a ring of 18 plates, and so on for a total of nine surrounding rings, the outermost having 9×9 plates. The Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests has four inner, twelve middle and twelve outer pillars, representing the four seasons, twelve months and twelve traditional Chinese hours respectively. Combined together, the twelve middle and twelve outer pillars represent the traditional solar terms. All the buildings within the Temple have special dark blue roof tiles, representing the Heaven. The Seven-Star Stone Group, east of the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvest, represents the seven peaks of Taishan Mountain, a place of Heaven worship in classical China. There are four main supportive, dragon pillars each representing a season. The structure, held up by these dragons, imitates the style of an ancient Chinese royal palace. Twelve inner pillars symbolize the lunar months, and it is thought that the twelve outer pillars refer to the 12 two-hour periods of the day.

The Temple of Heaven is located in the southeast of the Chinese capital, Beijing. Its construction began in 1420, the original name of the temple is the "Altar of the Offerings of Heaven and Earth", as it is the place where the emperors of China in the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644) and the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911) two empires made offerings to the gods of heaven and earth. Twenty-two emperors visited the temple during this period to make offerings to the gods. In the year 1530 a "altar of earth offerings" was built to present offerings to the gods of the earth in the northern suburbs of Beijing, so the name "altar of offerings of heaven and earth" was changed to "altar of offerings of heaven" to present offerings to the gods of heaven and pray for the sake of abundant harvest, and from here took his known name Its, "Temple of Heaven." It covers an area of ​​about 2.7 million square meters, which makes it the largest collection of ancient buildings for offering presentations in China. It is four times the size of the Imperial Palace in Beijing. The ancient Chinese emperor considered himself "the son of heaven," and it was natural that the area of ​​residence of the Son of Heaven, who is the imperial palace, was smaller than the place of heaven (the Temple of Heaven). In Beijing, in addition to the altar for the gods of the earth and the temple of heaven, there is an altar for the offerings of the sun gods in the east, and an altar for the offerings of the moon gods in the west, but the Temple of Heaven remains the most luxurious and majestic.

Enormous and attractive

My village

Very bad

Place of worship

I went twice. (Individual trip) The first time was 30 years ago, and it was difficult to walk on the approach road due to the puddle. At that time, there was no admission fee and I was able to visit freely. In addition, there were about 150 shops on the approach road and it was lively. The second time I went to 2018. At this time, the town of Monzen was dismantled and a magnificent gate was opened. It was erected. The difference between old and new felt. Walk along the road from the bus stop When you go, there is an admission ticket office and you can show your passport Admission is free (preferential treatment for people over 60 years old) There is an approach when you enter the gate, and when you go about 50m I will refrain from explaining after taking (should) take the shuttle to Ishibori on your left.

A huge clean, well-kept park and the temple is spectacular it looks like it is made again of how well it is preserved.

A must see in Beijing, it is amazing to walk around and take it all in. It is very beautiful and the park is very big. It does get very busy.

The Temple of Heaven Park, Tiantan in Chinese, is located in the Eastern District, Beijing. It is the largest and most representative existing masterpiece among China's ancient sacrificial buildings. Originally, the Temple of Heaven was the place where emperors of the Ming Dynasty (1368 - 1644) and Qing Dynasty (1644 - 1911) held the Heaven Worship Ceremony. First built in 1420, the 18th year of the reign of Emperor Yongle of the Ming Dynasty (1368 - 1644), the Temple of Heaven was enlarged and rebuilt during the reigns of the Ming emperor Jiajing and the Qing emperor Qianlong. In 1988, it was opened to the public as a park, showing ancient philosophy, history and religion. Its grand architectural style and profound cultural connotation give an insight into the practices of the ancient Eastern civilization.

i have been here it is amazing

Absolutely stunning! Must see in your life.

Amazing architecture

Bad please

The amazing place Temple Heaven of Beijing in China. It’s a nice place indeed.

The interior, which you can see - if you manage to squeeze through the crowds, is beautifully decorated - blue, gold, red and green colors dominate here. It is supported by 28 columns - four of them - called the dragon ones - symbolize the four seasons, 12 others - months and 12 others - the division of the day into just so many hours (or the traditional division of the day into 12 two-hour parts).

Interesting name of this Temple

Amazing place and experience. A must visit when going to Beijing. Please note that the pictures are from December 2018.

A landmark building representing China, people from all over the world will come to make a pilgrimage

The temple complex was constructed from 1406 to 1420 during the reign of the Yongle Emperor of Ming Dynasty, who was also responsible for the construction of the Forbidden City in Beijing. It is currently located in Dongcheng Beijing, China. The complex was extended and renamed Temple of Heaven during the reign of the Jiajing Emperor in the 16th century. Jia ging also built three other prominent temples in Beijing, the Temple of the Sun (日壇) in the east, the Temple of Earth (地壇) in the north, and the Temple of Moon (月壇) in the west. The Temple of Heaven was renovated in the 18th century under the Qianlong Emperor. By then, the state budget was insufficient, so this was the last large-scale renovation of the temple complex in imperial times. The temple was occupied by the Anglo-French Alliance during the Second Opium War. In 1900, during the Boxer Rebellion, the Eight Nation Alliance occupied the temple complex and turned it into the force's temporary command in Beijing, which lasted for one year. The occupation desecrated the temple and resulted in serious damage to the building complex and the garden. Robberies of temple artifacts by the Alliance were also reported.[citation needed] With the downfall of the Qing, the temple complex was left un-managed. The neglect of the temple complex led to the collapse of several halls in the following years.[2] In 1914, Yuan Shikai, then President of the Republic of China, performed a Ming prayer ceremony at the temple, as part of an effort to have himself declared Emperor of China. In 1918 the temple was turned into a park and for the first time open to the public. The Temple of Heaven was inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1998 and was described as "a masterpiece of architecture and landscape design which simply and graphically illustrates a cosmogony of great importance for the evolution of one of the world’s great civilizations..." as the "symbolic layout and design of the Temple of Heaven had a profound influence on architecture and planning in the Far East over many centuries. The Temple grounds cover 2.73 km2 (1.05 sq mi) of parkland and comprises three main groups of constructions, all built according to strict philosophical requirements: The Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests (祈年殿) is a magnificent triple-gabled circular building, 36 m (118 ft) in diameter and 38 m (125 ft) tall,[2] built on three levels of marble stone base, where the Emperor prayed for good harvests. The building is completely wooden, with no nails. The original building was burned down by a fire caused by lightning in 1889.[3] The current building was re-built several years after the incident. The Imperial Vault of Heaven (皇穹宇) is a single-gabled circular building, built on a single level of marble stone base. It is located south of the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests and resembles it, but is smaller.[4] It is surrounded by a smooth circular wall, the Echo Wall, that can transmit sounds over large distances. The Imperial Vault is connected to the Hall of Prayer by the Vermilion Steps Bridge, a 360-meter-long (1,180 ft) raised walkway that slowly ascends from the Vault to the Hall of Prayer. The dome for this building also has no crossbeams to support the dome.[5] The Circular Mound Altar (圜丘坛) is the altar proper, located south of the Imperial Vault of Heaven. It is an empty circular platform on three levels of marble stones, each decorated by lavishly carved dragons. The numbers of various elements of the Altar, including its balusters and steps, are either the sacred number nine or its nonuples. The center of the altar is a round slate called the Heart of Heaven (天心石) or the Supreme Yang (太阳石), where the Emperor prayed for favorable weather. Thanks to the design of the altar, the sound of the prayer will be reflected by the guardrail, creating significant resonance, which was supposed to help the prayer communicate with Heaven. The Altar was built in 1530 by the Jiajing Emperor and rebuilt in 1740.[3]

Good morning 😘😊😊😊

Temple of heaven, one of UNESCO World heritage site, very popular among tourists and thats why this place is always crowded. The most magnificient building is the circular mound altar and the hall of prayer for good harvest. I dont recommend you to visit in summer as it will be so hot because most part of this place is a large open space.

Ameno.

The most famous building in the 260-hectare park is the Qiniandian Temple (Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests), which was built between 1406 and 1420. The temple is 38 meters high and consists of three circular sections. The most impressive thing about the wooden building is that it is built without a single nail. The emperor of ancient China was considered the son of heaven and every year he came here to offer sacrifices and pray to the gods for a good harvest.

United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization Unesco recognized China's Heavenly Dan as World Cultural Heritage in 1998. Thien Dan, also known as the altar of heaven, is a complex of buildings in southeastern Beijing. If you visit Beijing, places like Truong Thanh, Co Cung and Thien Dan are must-visit places, because these structures represent the supreme level of ancient Chinese architecture. In order to pray for favorable weather and peaceful weather, every year, the Chinese emperors all held an intercession for the celestial paradise, the sacred mountain, of which the heavenly sacrifice was the most important. The Chinese people used to believe that the king was the son of heaven, so the king's performance was "Prince". The Chinese emperors all took the status of "Thien Tu" to rule the world and govern the nation. The sacrifices also became their prerogative, and the people could not follow them. Thien Dan was built in 1420, where the emperors of the Ming and Qing dynasties (1368 - 1911) performed sacrifices of heaven and earth. Thien Dan is located in the south of Co Cung, an area 5 times larger than that of Co Cung.

The Temple of Heaven, as the name suggests, is a shrine to the heavens. Since the Zhou Dynasty, China has had the custom of offering sacrifices to the heavens and the earth. After being combined with feudalism, it has become the "great sacrifice of the country." All emperors who profess to be "sons of the emperor" tried to consolidate their political status by worshiping heaven and earth. The Temple of Heaven Park in Beijing used to be a place where emperors of the Ming and Qing dynasties worship heaven, pray for valleys, and pray for rain. The carefully constructed architecture and courtyard layout reflect the traditional Chinese belief in the unity of nature and man and the imagination of the relationship between heaven and earth. The Temple of Heaven is already one of the representative attractions of Beijing. Not only the Beijing Municipal Bureau of Culture and Tourism chose the image of the Temple of Heaven to create the standard LOGO, but even Huang Mingzhi and Wang Leehom’s song "Floating North", selected the Temple of Heaven as the representative of Beijing and included it in the song. If you have the habit of watching palace dramas, you must have seen the emperor discussing about going to the Temple of Heaven to pray for blessings, right? In "The Legend of Zhen Huan", the emperor and empress came to the Temple of Heaven to pray for rain, which caused Zhen Huan to be punished by the Hua concubine to kneel and miscarry. In short, there is much to be said about the Temple of Heaven. In this article, let us walk into the world's largest surviving building complex to worship heaven!

Gorgeous park and super architecture. So nice to see locals playing cards and meeting friends.

Last year I visit this place which is the must go spot when in Beijing. 100 year old history and so many historic spots all in one place. The only downturn are the huge masses of tourists and security. Make sure to bring your passport with you all the time.

Beautiful atmosphere! Really nice temple!

ARE Y'ALL INTERESTED INTO WORSHIPPING A FROG-HUMAN (not really human but oh well) HYBRID!?

UNESCO world heritage site

Temple of Heaven in Beijing (Manchu: ᠠᠪᡣᠠᡞ ᠮᡠᡍᡩᡝᡥᡠᠨ　; transliteration: abkai mukdehun), located in Dongcheng District, Beijing, where the emperors sacrificed their heaven, prayed to the valley and prayed to the rain in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. It is the largest sacrificial building complex in ancient China with the highest ethical rank. In 1961, the Temple of Heaven was announced by the State Council as one of the first national key cultural relics protection units. In 1998, "Beijing Royal Altar-Temple of Heaven" was listed as a World Cultural Heritage. At present, the Temple of Heaven also includes the Qigutan in the nine temples and eight temples. The Temple of Heaven in Beijing was originally built for the eighteenth year of Ming Yongle (1420) to imitate the city of Nanjing. After the four-suburb division system was implemented in the 9th year of Jiajing (1530), another temple was built in the northern suburbs. Dedicated to Heaven, Qigu and Qiyu, and renamed the Temple of Heaven. The Qing Dynasty basically followed the Ming Dynasty, and had undergone large-scale renovation and expansion during the Qianlong period, except that the Nianmen and Huanggan Hall were buildings of the Ming Dynasty without modification. When the Eight-Power Allied Forces attacked Beijing in 1900, they even set up their headquarters here, and erected artillery on the altar of Qiuqiu to attack Zhengyangmen and the Forbidden City. The Allied forces swept away almost all the furnishings and ceremonies. After the founding of the Republic of China in 1912, except for Yuan Shikai, the President of the Republic of China, who sacrificed the heaven in the winter solstice in 1913, the Temple of Heaven no longer performed any sacrificial activities. Opened as a park in 1918, it was officially opened to the public. At present, the lush cypress in the park is a large garden in the south of Beijing.
