(231114) -- BEIJING, Nov. 14, 2023 (Xinhua) -- This photo taken on Oct. 22, 2023 shows people visiting the Temple of Heaven, which was listed as one of the UNESCO world heritage sites in 1998, on the Beijing Central Axis in Beijing, capital of China. First created in the Yuan Dynasty (1271-1368), the Beijing Central Axis, or Zhongzhouxian, stretches 7.8 km between the Yongding Gate in the south of the city and the Drum Tower and Bell Tower in the north. Most of the major old-city buildings of Beijing sit along this axis.
Chinese authorities have planned to recommend the Beijing Central Axis as China's 2024 world cultural heritage application project. It was included on the preliminary list of China's world cultural heritage sites in 2012. (Xinhua/Mu Wenchun)
