The
Circular Mound Altar, which was built in 1530 and enlarged in 1740. There are two walls
encircle the altar. Both walls are painted red and surrounded by blue tiles; however, each
wall represents something different. The round inner wall represents heaven while the
square outer wall represents earth.
In the southwest
corner, a platform to hold a lantern pole can be seen. The pole was built in 1530 but its
length changed several times. Originally, a golden dragon was painted on the pole on a
blue background, later, the color of background was changed to red. The pole was finally
furnished when Yuan Shikai, a warlord made the last sacrifice to Heaven.
In the center of
the upper terrace is the Heaven's Heart Stone which is surrounded by concentrically
arranged flag-stones. There are 9 stones in the first circle, 18 in the second, 27 in the
third. It continues in this manner up to the ninth circle, which has 81 stones. The middle
and bottom terraces also have 9 circles each. The total number of the marble flagstones on
the surface is 3,402, and each terrace has four entrances and a flight of nine steps
leading down in every direction.
