after our gruelling but enjoyable trek of the great wall of china at mutianyu, we headed to this temple - the temple of heaven. a popular park for taichi and other meditations, this complex is also one of china's magnificent architectural sites. according to unesco:
"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."
at first, both cathy and mark didn't want to go in due to ticket fees, but of course, i won't let the bitter cold spoil my historical walking tour of then freezing china. and besides, if we don't go in, the whole trip would a little bit be pointless.
