At the Foundation and Center of the Temple of Heaven, Beijing

· Reflection

At the Foundation of the Temple of Heaven in Beijing and at the Center of the Temple of Heaven with Ms. Wong, Tonska Dan Young and Ms. Isabella. The Center of the Temple Of Heaven is surrounded by 9 Concentric Circles, with Four Ascending Levels, with 9 steps between each Ascending Level, with Entrances to the Center from each of the Four Directions. It is way more deeper in spiritual meaning than this, from my perspective, but that is for another day!
