The Temple of Heaven to the local Beijing people is more than just a religious place or a place for viewing the ancient Chinese architecture.  It is also a huge park complex that comprises an area of hundreds-year-old cypress trees, well-maintained forests and gardens of various sizes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Temple of Heaven is a perfect place for locals, especially the retirees to come here for morning exercises, singing and dancing, and other cultural activities. Inside the east gate there is a lively playground equipped with rows of sports facilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now the playground has become  a lively morning hangout for the local Beijing people to do morning exercises, dancing and other activities, an interesting spot for foreigners to explore the routine life in Beijing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Follow me to have a virtual tour of the lively morning in Temple of Heaven.<\/p>\n\n\n
