A cup of tea

Seniors spending their Sunday at the gardens in the Temple of Heaven park in Beijing, China.The Temple of Heaven (Chinese: 天壇) is an imperial complex of religious buildings situated in the southeastern part of central Beijing. The complex was visited by the Emperors of the Ming and Qing dynasties for annual ceremonies of prayer to Heaven for good harvest. It has been regarded as a Taoist temple, although Chinese heaven worship, especially by the reigning monarch of the day, predates Taoism.
