The purple aura arrives from the east, with February orchids in the Temple of Heaven, Beijing

The Temple of Heaven Park was an ancient royal sacrificial site, with clusters of ancient trees, mostly pines and cypresses. In addition to the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests, the architecture around the Double Ring Pavilion and the Rose Garden is colorful and splendid, giving an overall solemn and dignified feeling to the park. Later in the spring, the February orchids bloom, their small purple flowers bringing romance and auspiciousness, accompanied by ancient trees and buildings, creating a 'purple aura arriving from the east' landscape. Around the East Gate of the Temple of Heaven, the west side of the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests, the surroundings of the Double Ring Pavilion, and along the moat, the world of February orchids is everywhere. In mid-April, when the lilacs are in full bloom, the white and purple embrace each other, offering a unique charm. In the morning, there are fewer visitors in the Temple of Heaven Park, and the February orchids, topped with dew or set against a backdrop of mist irrigation, are perfect for photography.
