Temple of Heaven Introduction:
The Temple of Heaven is situated in the southern part of Beijing city. The glazed-title roofs of the temples are deep blue and the platforms constructed of slabs of white marble. Each of the three platforms consists of three tiers, making a total of nine tiers-nine in Chinese cosmology symbolizing heaven. As a matter of fact, the number and layout of every single slab used in the platforms is determined according to cosmological principle.
The Temple of Heaven was the place where the emperors of the Ming and Qing dynasties worshipped heaven and prayed for good harvests. At first, both the temple and earth were worshipped here. After 1530 when the Temple of Earth was built, only the heaven was worshipped in this temple.
The Temple of Heaven is regarded as one of the greatest architectural structures in the world. Some environmental artists and gardeners describe the Temple of Heaven as a place where people can talk to heaven.
