What travelers say:

Beijing has the saying of "five tops and eight temples", "eight temples" refers to the Tai Temple, Fengxian Temple, Chuanxin Temple, Shouhuang Palace, Lama Temple, Tangzi, Temple of Literature, and the temple of emperors in previous generations, and the saying of "five tops" began in the Ming Dynasty. It is the joint name of the five most famous Bixia Yuanjun Temple in Beijing, which are East Ding, West Ding, South Ding, North Ding and Middle Ding. Bixia Yuanjun Temple is called "top", which means that worship is like on the top of Taishan Mountain, the five rings of Lejing City, which was both a place for people's spirit at that time, a place for folk activities, and a place for commodity trading. Bixia Yuanjun is the daughter of Dongyue Emperor. The Tao Jing is called "Tianxian Yunv Bixia Hushi Jizheng" and "Tianxian Yunv Baosheng Real Man Hongde Bixia Yuanjun" because of the town of Taishan, known as "Taishan Virgin Mary Bixia Yuanjun", commonly known as "Taishan Niangniang", is thought to be in charge of childbearing. It is an important goddess in Taoism and one of the most influential goddesses in Chinese history. The North Ding Niangniang Temple was built in the Ming Xuande years. It is rumored that it was originally the land temple. After the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Houqian, the Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houqian, and his mother made a wish, so he built a Niangniang Temple to thank the emperor. During the Qing Qianlong period, he was rebuilt. The Qing Dynasty was seriously damaged from the end of Qing Dynasty to the Republic of China. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, it was occupied by the Beiding foundry and Beiding Elementary School, until 1986, it was announced as a cultural relics protection unit in Chaoyang District, 2003 was announced as the seventh batch of municipal cultural relics protection units in Beijing, and in 2007 the main renovation project was completed, becoming a branch of Beijing Folk Museum. Since the famous "North Dingniangniang Temple incident", shocked China and abroad, so that the North Dingniangniang Temple has undoubtedly become the most mysterious place among the "five tops". It is said that the original site of the "Water Cube" is in the location of the Beiding Niangniang Temple. On August 27, 2004, the construction side of the water cube began to dismantle the Beiding Niangniang Temple. I didn't expect to just unload the temple door and encounter "mysterious power". For a time, dark clouds cover the sun and the sky are dark, and the tornado is blowing on the flat ground. The construction site was razed to the ground, and the Beiding Niangniang Temple did not lose one brick and one tile. Later, a Ming Dynasty ancient ding was dug out in front of the temple. It is rumored that it is an important "town object" in Beijing City, so the reputation of the Beiding Niangniang Temple "the strongest nail household" quickly spread. The end is that even the Olympic project water cube has to move 100 meters north to build. In fact, the Beiding Niangniang Temple has been determined as a municipal cultural relics protection unit in 2003, the site of the Olympic venue should have been "detoured", so the ingredients of this strange event are probably more, but it adds a very strong mystery to the Beiding Niangniang Temple. Now the North Dingniangniang Temple can be visited inside, just in the southwest corner of the Olympic Park, no advance reservation is required. North top Niangniang Temple has three mountain gates on the top of the mountain. The mountain gate hall is usually not open. After entering the courtyard, there are four courtyards. The north side of the courtyard is the Temple of the Tennos. It is dedicated to the four kings. There are bell and drum towers in the east and west. There is an ancient tree with hundreds of years old in the southwest corner. The second entrance to the north of the hospital is the Niangni Temple, offering the Virgin Mary Bixia Yuanjun, the Virgin Mary Mingmu Yuanjun, the Virgin Mary of the children Yuanjun, many pilgrims here to lay flowers to the Virgin Mary.
