We went to the magnificent and colorful Temple of Heaven (TianTan) which is where emperors of the Ming and Qing dynasties would make offerings to heaven and pray for good harvests.
The Temple of Heaven was constructed during the reign of Ming Emperor YongLe (reign: 1403-1424). We stayed nearly all day and the sun was hot hot but the history was rich.
