Temple of Heaven is located in a public park and it should be noted that all public parks have a small fee to enter. Truly, such a minuscule amount from like $1-$3 at most. 

What I love is that elder individuals usually spend their time performing at parks and either singing, playing music, or both. It's fun just to spend a day and taking a lunch to watch them perform while also visiting some pretty amazing and historical temples and buildings.

Thought the temple only has the central structure and allocated 2h for visit. Ended up spending an entire day exploring the entire park facilities, garden and snapping the temple from different angles, at different timing.

I Love the building here. It's very overwhelming looking at the Temple of Heaven. Reasons to Recommend: You've just gotta come here and see it live in front of you. 😍

went there with my dad for holiday and it was indeed beautiful! less people during that time and it was good for taking pics.

The Temple of Heaven in Beijing is a top site to visit when in Beijing. In the summertime it may be very hot but luckily you will also be able to find shade along your way around in this beautiful park.

Truly enjoyed my day! Presumably more enjoyable than Forbidden City itself given the lesser crowd! Recommended to come here. Beautiful temple
