The perfect guide for the Tample of Heaven

The Temple of Heaven Park is located in the Dongcheng District, Beijing. It is the largest and most representative existing masterpiece among China's ancient sacrificial buildings. A photographic masterpiece. I have put together the ultimate guide for you, with everything you need to know for the temple.📋 Must see historic buildings:🏯 1. The Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests The place where the emperors sacrificed animals and burned incense sticks to pray for good weather for the crops. 2. The Imperial Vault of Heaven Inside, there is the circular echo wall, which is a curve wall that creates amazing acoustics. 3. Circular Mound Altar The view under the sunset glows. Which gate to choose:🌉 There are four gates (East, South, West, and North. I will recommend the East Gate, because you will pass by the local people engaged in all kinds of morning activities. (You can see the map in my photos) How to get there:🗺 For the east gate, you take subway line 5 to Tiantan Dongmen Station and then take exit A. Address: No. 7 Tiantann-nei-dongli, Dongcheng District, Beijing Address in Chinese: 北京市东城区天坛内东里7号 Operation time and Tickets:🎫 Busy season: Apr.-Oct.👥 Park time: 06:00-22:00 Time for the attractions inside the park: 08:00-17:30 Park Ticket: 15 RNB Attractions Ticket: 34 RNB Low season: Nov.-Mar.👤 Park time: 06:30-22:00 Time for the attractions inside the park: 08:00-17:00 Park Ticket: 10 RNB Attractions Ticket: 28 RNB You can go to the entrance to buy the tickets or use WeChat to book it online. At WeChat, you should search “天坛门票.” Don’t forget to bring your passport with you. In my opinion just buy the ticket at the gate. Audio guide:🎧 You can find the audio guide at each Temple of Heaven entrance. Chinese language: 20 RMB. Any other language: 40 RMB. My personal tips:⭐️ 1. Don't eat inside the park the food is expensive and nothing special 2. Wear comftable shows, you are going to do a lot of walking. 3. Compain the temple with the Pearl market for some shopping, which is very close. 4. Interact with the locals. They really enjoy a foreign company, and you will create a core memory. #wecreate #localguides #mytravelhacks #familytrip #tripblazers #china
