天坛是世界文化遗产,全国重点文物保护单位,国家5A级旅游景区。位于北京市南部,东城区永定门内大街东侧。
The Temple of Heaven is located in southern Beijing.It is included in the UNESCO world heritage(遗产)list in 1998.With an area of 2.7 million square meters,it is the largest of its kind in the country.
Built in 1420,the 18th year of the rule of Ming Emperor Yongle,the temple's main building is the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests(祈年殿). The round hall,38 meters high and 30 meters in diameter, has triple eaves and a cone-shaped deep blue tile(瓦)roof crowned with a gilded knob.Surrounding the hall is a six-meter-high spacious round stone terrace(平台)on three levels,each edged by a balustrade of carved white marble.
The Circular Mound Altar is one of the most important buildings and is a three-tier white stone terrace together with two walls.Geometrically designed,the altar has a taiji rock at the center of the top terrace. If you stand on the rock and speak in a normal voice,your voice will sound louder and deeper to yourself than to others around you,because the sound waves are reflected by the round wall and come back to the center.
Every year,the Temple of Heaven receives millions of visitors from all over the world.
