Beijing Last Day. May 20, 2013

Larraine and I walked to the Temple of Heaven. It is almost as huge as the Forbidden City. Would take days to see it all. For example a 40,000 square foot Fasting palace used just for the emperor to fast from meat, alcohol and women for three days a year prior to the sacrifice of goats to the gods to pray for a good grain harvest. Another vast temple called temple to pray for grain etc. 
We found another adult playground on the way back to hotel. Larraine on a rowing machine
