Monday. We headed off to the temple of Heaven, the park was open but the gates to the temple were closed. We just had to suffice with a picture of the temple from outside the heavy walls. The park was beautiful and big, long lanes lined with trees in the best autumn colours. In the afternoon we took a cab to Beihai lake where we walked around the lake. There were plentiful young Chinese dressed in traditional clothing of a century ago. This seems a favourite thing to do for many young Chinese.
