Prose on Visiting the Temple of Heaven in Early Spring and February

In early spring and February, I came to the south gate of Tiantan Park in the morning. The gate with red walls and green tiles gives people a heavy sense of history. The beast on the cornice has experienced 500 years of historical vicissitudes in Ming and Qing Dynasties. Witnessed the change of dynasties and the joys and sorrows of the people.

Visitors who follow morning exercises enter the park through the narrow ticket gate. Suddenly there was a damp smell of grass, and I couldn't help taking a deep breath and moistening my lungs. Then, feeling refreshed, I couldn't help but step up and walk to a crowded place with light steps.

Pines and cypresses are lush, and it is refreshing to see the green eyes in this warm and cold early spring.

Standing on the bridge, along the marble' Yong Road', through the echo wall, slowly walk to the Hall of Prayer for the New Year, getting higher and higher, as if walking towards the sky, and the high steps are wide and flat, as if holding people up with both arms.

Overlooking the plants on both sides, it feels small and vague, and the pine and cypress just show their heads. I really have a feeling of flying high and admire the creative wisdom of the ancients! Rectangular bluestone slabs have become smooth and delicate after being trampled by tourists.

The famous Hall of Prayer for the New Year is just around the corner, and the purple glazed tiles are shining in the sun. The golden top of the ball sparkled. During the whole construction process, no nails were used, and all these were connected by Mao Ying structure. The wooden pillars in Jin Sinan support the umbrella-shaped temple roof, with exquisite workmanship and exquisite materials. After sunshine and wind and rain, the color is still so bright and dazzling.

After hundreds of years, the pines and cypresses planted in Ming and Qing dynasties are still lush and full of vitality. Like an old man, he tells tourists about the history of the Temple of Heaven every day. In the face of his awe, admiration arises spontaneously.

The shape of the trunk proves that they have experienced many vicissitudes. For the convenience of maintenance and observation, the park staff marked all the pine and cypress trees in the park, and hung red cards on the open trunks and green cards on the clear trunks, and those without cards carried them later.

On the bench with carved beams and painted cloisters, many old people are playing poker in groups of three, not betting on winning or losing, just to pass the time for fun.

Magpies are flying up and down in the nearby pine and cypress trees, attracting photographers to run with long guns and short guns. Little sparrows can't fly high, and they are chirping in line at the top of the long corridor.

Under the pine and cypress trees, it is a good place for people to exercise. Playing Tai Ji Chuan looks very calm, one stroke and one style, slowly practicing internal strength;

While literary lovers spontaneously get together to sing. The familiar old songs evoke people's feelings for youth. I can't help but join in the fun and sing along with the conductor. As for whether it is out of tune, no one cares, just addicted to expressing feelings. From time to time, the rich body language of the conductor brings everyone to a climax, just like the roaring, surging and climax of the Yellow River. Sometimes it's like a trickle. Think slowly. People are immersed in singing, as if returning to the years when passion was burning.

The conductor is free and the singer is spontaneous. A unique landscape has been formed in the park, adding new vitality to the century-old park.

In this cold early spring, the old lilac tree shows green buds, like a newborn in its infancy.

When the mountain flowers are in full bloom, the old branches of lilacs glow with the brilliance of the New Year, with purple stamens, and clusters of them rush to open, bending the thin branches and hanging them to the ground to form a flower umbrella. Children are playing in it, and couples are whispering in it.

It is a pleasure to visit the Temple of Heaven Park, feel the history and stroll in the ancient fragrance and rhyme!
