Past the two echo constructions, I walked on the Red Stairway Bridge (or Danbi Qiao in Chinese). Its south end is one meter high, and the north end three meters high. The gradually ascending bridge means going to Heaven step by step. The central and the widest path of the bridge was reserved exclusively for God, and nobody including the emperor was allowed to set foot onto it. The emperor used east path, while ministers and princes used the one on the west.

Through the Red Stairway Bridge, I arrived at the Prayer for Good Harvest, which waked up many memories in my childhood. The round hall features triple eaves and a cone-shaped deep blue tile roof. It is 38 meters high and 30 meters in diameter. Three-level stone terrace encloses the hall. Balustrade along the terrace stair is made of white marble. I am sure everyone will be impressed by the magnificent ancient architecture, just like me!

It almost concludes our tour in Temple of Heaven. Continue eastward, I exited from the Eastern Gate.
