The round terrace was first covered with deep blue glazed slabs surrounded with a white marble balustrade when it was expanded. It has a circular perimeter of 534m and a height of 5.2mThis altar was also built for religious purposes, especially for ceremonies to pray for rain by the emperor in times of drought.During the Ming and Qing Dynasties (1368–1911 AD), the emperors would offer sacrifices to Heaven on the day of the Winter Solstice every year. Sacrificial animals and other offerings were burned here to ensure good harvests. A common animal slaughtered here was the bull, which the people would set on fire as a sacrifice of prosperity.This ceremony was to thank Heaven and pray that everything would be good in the future.".
