Beijing Day 7 - Drupal Tour 2016

By Eduardo García ● CTO | April 10th, 2016

After expending some time updating my slides about Drupal Console, I went out to try to see as much as possible of Beijing on my last day here.

Firstly, I visited the Yonghe “Lama” Temple, the most prominent Buddhist Tibetan temple in Beijing. In this complex, you could find several temples where people can pray with giants and small statues representing Buda and Buddhist.

My second stop includes two places in one, the Temple of Confucius and the Guozijian or Imperial Academy. Those ancient buildings where was the emperors and high officials were thaught for more than seven centuries and where you can learn a little bit about Confucius’s life.

Finally, I visit the Temple of Heaven, which is now a park and inside there are some places where the emperor used to pray to have a good weather and for harvest time among other rituals as animal sacrifices.
