【Why does Trump want to go to the Temple of Heaven?】


First, from a cultural significance standpoint, the Temple of Heaven is the sacred site for Ming and Qing dynasties' sacrifices to heaven, the world's largest sacrificial architecture complex, embodying the philosophy of "Heaven is round, Earth is square" and the unity of heaven and man, as well as the folk ideology of "National prosperity and peace, favorable weather." China emphasizes the values of "harmony in diversity and harmonious coexistence" through this.
Second, it is a tradition for U.S. leaders visiting China to go to the Temple of Heaven. Kissinger also visited the Temple of Heaven; he said that with American technology, replicating the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests is no problem, but they can't replicate the ancient trees of the Temple of Heaven. The temple has over 3,200 ancient trees, with the oldest being 620 years old. The historical buildings standing for over 600 years and the ancient trees behind them cannot be replicated.
