Step through the West Gate 2 of Ritan Park and discover Beijing's best-kept secret: a 600-year-old imperial altar where emperors worshipped the sun! Now locals practice tai chi under ancient cypress trees, while the ceremonial terrace's red walls glow at dawn. Don't miss the ginkgo biloba avenue near this gate - when autumn comes, it transforms into a golden tunnel that photographers adore (locals call it 'Little Kyoto'). Pro tip: This entrance puts you minutes away from embassy district's hidden gourmet spots!
