Worship of Heaven and Earth in China

The worship of heaven and earth is universal throughout China, and the officials all over the empire are obliged to conduct this worship. In the southern part of the city of Peking there is an altar to heaven, where it is the duty of the emperor to come annually to worship. He sometimes delegates this duty to a high official.
