With Seiu Travel ... "The Temple of Heaven in Beijing has stood for over 600 years—a sacred site where emperors once worshipped the heavens. This solemn sanctuary not only witnessed the grandeur of the Ming and Qing dynasties but also preserved countless ancient rituals and stories. In this video, we begin our journey at the South Gate of the Temple of Heaven, retracing the footsteps of emperors past. From the Circular Mound to the Echo Wall, and finally to the magnificent Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests, every step brings us deeper into history. Beyond the altars, the Temple of Heaven Park also offers tranquil corners: the serene Zhai Palace in the west, the poetic Double Ring Longevity Pavilion, and the relaxed vibes of the Hundred Flowers Garden shaded by ancient pines. Just beyond the temple walls, old Beijing comes alive—with smoky alleyways, time-honored snacks, and the rhythm of daily life. Here, history and life are only a street apart. Whether you're drawn to imperial rituals or local flavor, the Temple of Heaven is an unmissable chapter of Beijing."

The MaiJiShan Grottoes are filled with thousands of Buddhist sculptures. These were carved from the Wei dynasty to the Song dynasty by Buddhist monks who first came here via the North Silk Road. The grottoes are close to TianShui, which is the second largest city in GanSu province in central China, with a population of approximately 3.5 milion. The city lies along the route of the ancient Northern Silk Road by the Wei River, through which much of the trade flowed between China and the West. The Qin state, the founding dynasty of China, arose in this part of China.
