The hotel is located in the southe part of the city, focusing on the surface of 273 hectares.

The northe part of the Temple is circular while the southe part is square, implies "sky is round and the earth is square" to better symbolize heaven and earth.

It's worth the time to four wonderful sounds. 1. The echo of the Echo Wall - There is a circular wall around the Imperial Vault of Heaven, which is the famous Echo Wall. A person can only whisper at any time in the vicinity of the wall can be heard clearly on the other hand, if your ear close to the wall, is so clear that it is like talking on the phone. You know why? This is possible because the wall is round and hermetically constructed with smooth, solid bricks, so that the sound of the waves can be found on the side on extremely smooth inner circle. 2nd The sound of the dialogue Stone - If you're talking about standing on 18 stone before the Imperial Vault of Heaven, the sound is clear to the north-east coer of the north room in the northwest and the west side of the hall, which are 36 meters away. The sound can be heard as well as on the stone, when one of the coers of two rooms on this page, this is what we call "the dialogue sound of rock." 3rd Repeat the error sounds Triple-Sound Stone - First walk to the hall is the Triple-Sound Stone. If you are on the first stone and beating their hands or call, the sound will echo once on the second stone, the sound twice, and the third stone, the sound will repeat three times. Hence the name inherited. This is because the distances that the sound waves reflected by the long stone wall are different, the number of echoes is also different. Take a guess, the slab in the middle of the Echo's? The third. The echo is actually repeated more than 3 times, it is only the sound is too weak to be heard after the 4th Echo. 4th The Cave of Heaven's Stone Center - This is a slab of stone in the middle of the Circular Mound Altar called Heaven's Stone Center. Shouted to the above, you hear echoes of the echo. This is due to the refraction of sound. Note: You can freely Republic this article as long as author bio and remain active hyperlinks active.
