One of the must see places in Beijing. Most beautiful in late afternoon with the warm sunset light. Can be a bit crowded but still worth a visit.

The Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests (祈年殿) is a magnificent triple-gabled circular building, built on three levels of marble stone base, where the Emperor prayed for goods harvest.

The building is completely wooden, with not a single nail used. The original building was burned down by a fire caused by lightning in 1889. The current building was rebuilt a few years later.
