Red Gates

Just like in the Forbidden City, we passed through a big red gate to enter the grounds for the Temple of Heaven. These gates always seem to be open; at least, I've never seen any that were closed. They look to be very heavy and strong. I'm wondering if they are left open because of how big and heavy they are or if they are closed at night and the public just doesn't see it. I'd be very interested to see them opening and closing.Läs mer
