#Xiannongtan (Temple of Agriculture)

Directly to the west of the Temple of Heaven, the Temple of Agriculture was the site of imperial sacrifices dedicated to Shennong, the legendary "first farmer" of China, and other ancient mythological figures. It is the largest, highest-ranked and best-preserved site for agricultural rituals in China. The site now boasts the Beijing Ancient Architecture Museum, the country's first museum specializing in collecting, researching and showcasing traditional ancient architectural techniques, arts and history.
