We didn’t expect to see people milling around at the entrance to the Beijing Temple of Heaven doing things like hacky sack, calligraphy, dance, Tai Chi, and swords. We’d noticed the parking lot full of bicycles out front, but thought that tourists probably brought their bikes…I guess the huge number of bicycles themselves kind of struck us as weird. We didn’t ever connect the dots and realize that people probably rode to the Temple of Heaven on their bicycles every day to get some exercise and have some fun as shown in this video.
