Photo of the Day - Temple of Heaven

Today's photo, taken by Flickr user toffiloff, transports us to the Temple of Heaven in Beijing, China. The photographer's perspective, gazing up from the bottom of the stairs at the magnificent Taoist structure, seems to reinforce the building's spiritual force. A solitary bird in the upper right of the image, floating gently in the breeze, adds an additional layer of visual interest.

Have any great photos from your recent travels? Why not add them to our Gadling group on Flickr? We might just pick one of yours as our Photo of the Day.
