ESSENTIAL CHINA: BEIJING: TEMPLE OF HEAVEN
THE TEMPLE OF HEAVEN
A UNESCO World Heritage Site larger in size than the Forbidden City, The Temple of Heaven is a physical manifestation of the symbiosis between God’s world and the human world – Heaven and Earth. Among the buildings is one of China’s most beautiful architectural gems, the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvest, a circular temple whose blue-tiled walls resemble cloisonné. Imperial sacrifices were performed here to maintain order and harmony on earth.  In the spring, the emperor himself came to pray for his people.
