First built in 1420, the 18th year of the reign of Emperor Yongle of the Ming Dynasty (1368 - 1644), the Temple of Heaven was enlarged and rebuilt during the reigns of the Ming emperor Jiajing and the Qing emperor Qianlong.

In 1988, it was opened to the public as a park, showing ancient philosophy, history, and religion. Its grand architectural style and profound cultural connotation give an insight into the practices of the ancient Eastern civilization.
