Beijing Yuetan Park Review

Come to Yuetan Park to explore an important part of Beijing Temple Culture since the Ming Dynasty moved to Beijing, in the need of royal sacrifice activities, Beijing gradually opened into the Temple culture of the "Nine Temples and Eight Temples", of which the "Nine Temples" include the Temple of Heaven, the Temple of Earth, the Temple of Sun, the Temple of Moon, the Temple of the First Farmer, the Temple of the Society, First silkworm altar, prayer valley altar, Taisui altar, corresponding to different sacrifice scenes, that is, for worshipping different gods. The moon altar is also known as the "sun moon altar", unlike the temple of heaven built in the Yongle years, the moon altar was built in the nine years of Ming Jiajing (1530), and the emperor Jiajing thought that the gods of heaven, earth, sun and moon should be sacrificed separately to show the royal piety, so he specially built the moon altar. Used to sacrifice the gods of night and brightness (that is, the moon) and the stars in the sky during the autumn equinox. After Qing Shunzhi eight years (1651), Qing Qianlong 20 years (1755), the moon altar was rebuilt, by the end of Qing Dynasty the temple was abandoned, the moon altar was used as a barracks and schools in the Republic of China, the ancient trees in the temple were cut down again, and the moon altar was protected until after the founding of the state. It was opened in 1955 as a park. In the 1960s, the altar wall and altar of the moon altar were demolished and a TV tower was built. To date, this tower is still the most eye-catching building in the moon altar park. You can almost see this tall tower when you look up at all positions in the park. The main ancient buildings of the moon altar, such as various halls, shrines, kitchens, well pavilions, sacrificial artifacts, musical instruments, and slaughter pavilions, are surrounded by the TV tower courtyard, and are not open to visit. However, on the west side of the north garden of Yuetan Park, there is a remains of the Ming Dynasty altar wall, protected by glass frames, so that people can see the style of the historical relics nearly 500 years ago, and imagine the glory of the moon altar when it was used as a royal altar. The last time I came to Yuetan Park was more than a year ago. In fact, more than 20 years ago, I worked in the Yuetan Building opposite the east gate of the park for a while. I passed by the park door every day, but I never thought of entering the park to take a look. In addition, I remember that when I went to junior high school 30 years ago, I came to the east gate of Yuetan Park to buy New Year's cards. At that time, the greeting cards sold here were many styles and low prices, attracting many students from afar. The park is divided into South Park and North Park. The North Park is mainly the relics of ancient construction. The South Park is a garden landscape. The whole park is not too big. It is enough to walk around for more than ten minutes. However, because after all, most of the ancient buildings of Yuetan can no longer be visited, so there are not many tourists in the North Park. Most of the people are in the South Park. There are many landscapes in the South Park, including forests, pavilions, pools, squares, etc., suitable for rest, sightseeing, fitness and other activities. Even at noon in the summer, the garden is full of tourists, mainly surrounding residents and nearby office workers, and there are not many tourists who come to visit the attractions. The personal favorite place in Yuetan Park is located in the central and eastern area of the South Park. It is surrounded by bamboo forests, promenades and pavilions. There are lotus and lotus in the water. It is very quiet and elegant, and it has the style of Jiangnan garden. Today in the pavilion also saw an elegant old man painting, painting very wonderful, attracted many people to stop to watch.

Today, the temperature is 36 degrees, to Yuetan Park, there are many pavilions, promenades and rest seats in the park, people are three or three to take a cool rest, and the elderly are playing cards for fun. In such hot weather, there are also people who are here to exercise, dancing, walking, playing table tennis, and a set of swords. There are equipment venues and beautiful park environments, especially suitable for leisure sports and walking the baby.

The place for citizens to relax is that they are a bit unfriendly to the people. Tickets are free of charge than the Zizhuyuan Park and Taoranting Park on the upper grade of this park! I don't know why this small park needs tickets? The monuments in the park were basically destroyed, flowers, lakes, pavilions, corridors, etc. were all built afterward, and the environment was not bad.

Just next to our unit, sometimes go for a walk, very small, but very delicate, there are a lot of people inside, and there are a lot of activities for the elderly.

Yuetan Park, one of the five altars, is located on Yuetan North Street in Xicheng District. Because it is close to the unit, I often meet my colleagues for a walk here during lunch breaks. It is the season for plum appreciation, and the plum blossoms in the park are very bright.

Beijing's Yuetan Park is very good, near the finance
