After the first snowfall of winter in Beijing, the Temple of Heaven – where the Ming (1368-1644) and Qing (1644-1911) dynasty emperors prayed to heaven for good harvests – has become more peaceful and mysterious, attracting crowds of tourists and shutterbugs. Covering an area of more than 270 hectares, this complex of imperial religious buildings surrounded by historic pine woods was inscribed as a World Heritage Site in 1998.
