Gate of Prayer for Good Harvests at Temple of Heaven in Beijing, China

Two portals mark the southern entrance to Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests. The second and most elaborate one is the Gate of Prayer for Good Harvests. As you walk up the marble staircase towards the three doors, stop to appreciate the dragon motif below the rafter. Above the decorative eave is a blue glazed tile roof representing heaven.
