A stunning Ming-dynasty ritual complex where emperors once prayed for good harvests, set within a vast park that locals use daily for tai chi, ballroom dancing, and card games. The Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests is architecturally breathtaking — arrive early to watch elderly Beijingers exercise in the surrounding cypress groves before the tour groups arrive. The park entry is cheap but the inner temple complex costs extra; budget accordingly.
