History of Beijing Monuments
by Dou Xinping
About This Novel
As an ancient capital with a history of more than 800 years, Beijing is full of historic sites. These monuments are closely related to imperial power, especially the royal politics of the Ming and Qing dynasties, and became the location of many major historical events at that time. In a sense, exploring the history of these monuments is to recreate the different historical aspects of the feudal dynasty during that period. This book selects nearly twenty of the most important monuments in Beijing, including the Forbidden City, Jingshan, Summer Palace, Old Summer Palace, and Temple of Heaven, and narrates the past and present of these monuments and the political events that took place here, allowing readers to return to the historical scene and appreciate the profound historical and cultural connotations of the monuments. The author once studied Qing history at the Institute of Qing History at Renmin University of China. This professional background enabled him to clear away the fog of history, eliminate the elements of joking, and present the original appearance of history.

Fallacies can appear in basic facts, which shows that it is a fabricated book. Bad review!
In the era of the Temple of Heaven and Earth, the Temple of Heaven was a square building, and the Great Sacrifice Hall and the Great Xiang Hall were not the same thing. The author couldn't figure it out, and even talked about it in tandem, which was purely misleading.
