The following picture shows the Temple of Heaven, which covers an area of 2.73 million square meters, four times the area of the Forbidden City, and is the largest and highest ethical sacrificial complex in ancient China. In 1961, the Temple of Heaven was announced by The State Council as one of the first national key cultural relics protection units. In 1998, "Beijing Royal Altar - Temple of Heaven" was listed as a World cultural Heritage. At present, the Temple of Heaven Park also includes the altar of prayer for grain in the nine temples and eight temples.

The Temple of Heaven has a rigorous layout, unique architectural structure, magnificent decoration, clever use of mechanics, acoustics and geometry principles, and has high historical, scientific and cultural value.
