Di Tan Park
The park was named after the Temple of Earth (Di Tan), which was a venue for imperial sacrifices. The altar's square shape represents the earth. These days, the only thing that gets killed here is time: the park is always full of pensioners strolling, chatting, and exercising. A lively temple fair (miaohui) is held here at Chinese New Year to welcome the spring planting season and appease the gods.
