Indoor color painting is an old object, while Fang Jinlong New Zi Xuan color painting and outdoor color painting are new works of Jinlong and Xi. There are 72 gold-plated silver halberds and iron halberds on both sides of the gate, which are inserted on the wooden frame. In the 26th year of Guangxu reign in Qing Dynasty (1900), "Eight-Nation Alliance" entered Beijing, mistaking it for a gold and silver halberd and plundering it all.

To the south of Jiyumen is the Hall of Pleasure, also known as the Hall of Worship, which is now Zhongshan Hall. It turned out to be the place where the emperor came here to rest when offering sacrifices or to offer sacrifices when it rained. The building was built in the Ming Dynasty, with 5 rooms wide and 3 rooms deep. The yellow glazed tile rests on the top of the mountain and arches seven steps. Outdoor color painting has a seal, and indoor color painting has a golden dragon heart and a spinner, which is also a change after changing the function. The main hall was built from top to bottom, with no verandah. The diagonal beams intersect with Caibujin and Xiajinao in the columns, which is the structural feature of the verandah in the Ming Dynasty, which proves that this hall is still the original appearance in the early Ming Dynasty. The decoration of doors and windows is not old, but there are three separated doors and sill windows in the tip room now. The halberd gate is connected with the front and back of the worship hall, and both stand on the white stone platform with a height of about 1 m, with six steps.

To the south of the temple is the social altar. The altar is a square three-layer platform, made of white marble, with four appearances and three levels. The upper side is about 15m, the two sides are about 16.8m, and the lower side is about17.8m. The altar is built in strict accordance with the ancient system, and the upper layer of the altar is covered with five colors, namely middle yellow, east green, south red, west white and north black, which symbolize the five elements. There is a square stone pillar in the center of the altar, which is the "owner of the society", also known as "Jiangshan stone", symbolizing the eternal stability of the country. The stone pillar was partially buried in the soil and completely buried, and moved to other places on 1950; There is also a wooden "millet master" that has disappeared in the original altar. At that time, the five-color soil laid in the altar came from tributes from all over the country, and new soil was laid in Shuntianfu every spring and autumn. In the fifth year of Hongzhi in the Ming Dynasty (1492), the altar soil was changed from two inches and four points to one inch, all of which followed this system. There is a royal wall around the altar, and the top of the wall is covered with blue, red, white and black colored glazed bricks. Each side of the imperial wall is 62m long and1.7m high. The stargate is surrounded by white marble, and the door frame is also made of stone. It turns out that there are two vermilion leaves on each side. In the southwest, besides the social altar, the hedonic hall and the thistle gate, the inner altar wall also has a god chef and a god library. They are five rooms wide and five purlins deep, with a hall in the middle. There is a gate at the inner altar wall in the west, and the slaughter pavilion is located on the south side of the west gate of the altar wall, where sacrifices are made. Outside it, there is a heavy wall (most of which has been demolished), which is connected with the Xitan wall. There is a brick glass coupon door in the middle of the north wall. The yellow glass tube tile rests on the top of the mountain and has a wide surface. Under the eaves, there is a wood-like green glass three-step arch.
Worship temples
The worship hall is a place where emperors of Ming and Qing dynasties sheltered from the wind and rain on their way to sacrifice and sweep, hence the name. 1925 after the death of Dr. Sun Yat-sen, he stopped here and changed his name to "Zhongshan Hall" on 1928. 19 14, Shejitan was turned into a central park, which was later renamed as "Zhongshan Park". After being converted into a park, pavilions will be widely built around the social altar, and there will be a pot-throwing pavilion, a future rain pavilion and a pine and cypress pavilion in the east. There are Ying Hui Pavilion, Studio, Tanghuawu, Shuixie, Chunming Pavilion and Siyixuan in the west. In the south, there are Lanting Eight Columns and Lanting Monument moved from Yuanmingyuan, and the square of defending peace of white marble. Like ancestral temples, Sheji Tanyuan is also famous for its ancient cypresses. Among them, seven ancient cypresses beside Yuxuan have been handed down for thousands of years, and the trunk circumference is more than 6 meters. The remaining hundreds of cypress trees cover the sky, tall and straight, vigorous and changeable, and spectacular.
Outer wall of altar
The circumference of the outer altar wall is about 2015m. In the middle of Tiananmen Square, there is a gate of Sheji Street. To the east, the yellow glazed tile rests on the top of the mountain, with five rooms wide and three rooms deep. The west gate of the end gate is the left gate of the club, and the yellow glazed tile rests on the top of the mountain, with three widths and one depth. The northeast gate of Shejitan is located in the west of the right gate in front of the meridian gate. Originally Sanmen Huangwamen, it has lost its original appearance after reconstruction. The eight pillars of Lanting were originally built in one of the 40 scenic spots in Yuanmingyuan, "sitting on the stone tide", imitating the Lanting in Shaoxing. The pavilion is a pyramid-shaped roof with double eaves and octagonal tiles, and the pavilion has a built-in Lanting monument. The Lanting tablet is engraved with a winding water flow map, and there are poems written by Gan Long on the back. Eight pillars were engraved with Gan Long and Lanting posts, which were copied by seven selected calligraphers.
There is a white marble archway with three layers of blue glazed tiles in the south gate of the newly-built outer altar wall. This workshop was originally located in Dongdan North Street, and it was built to make amends for the German envoy Kreander who was killed in 1900 by the Qing court. Germany 19 18 was defeated in World War I, and 19 19 was wiped out by citizens. Later, the government of the Republic of China ordered Germany to rebuild here, renamed it "Victory of Justice" Square, and arranged fountains and flowers to form a European landscape. 1950 changed to "defending peace" workshop.

There are also many ancient cypresses in the garden, most of which were planted when the altar was built in the Ming Dynasty. The branches of ancient trees are an important part of the altar environment. There is a tree called "Huai Bai Hug each other", which is a pair of Huai Bai Hug each other. It is still flourishing and spectacular, and has become a unique landscape in the garden.
