Welcome back to another Comprehensible Input Vlog, everyone.

Today we are in Beijing at the Temple of Heaven.

This is our first day in Beijing.

So let's go explore the Temple of Heaven, learn English vocabulary, phrases, common expressions,

and you'll get to practice your pronunciation with two shadowing segments.

Make sure you watch until the end for the last one.

This video is sponsored by Surfshark VPN.

It's slightly daft.

Feel it?

And apparently it's huge, right?

Very big.

They're definitely not banned, but I guess they're just like...

Jing is a masterpiece of architectural and really focus on your accent and your pronunciation.

Yeah, my stomach feels like it's going to explode.

I guess they bow to each corner, whether you're Canadian or a tourist.

Facts.

Yeah, it is edible.

It's edible paper.

Oh, is it?

They probably soaked that fruit in sugar before they coat it.

Let's get started.

It is hot today.

Like, it is so hot.

Look at these people.

They're getting clothed up, dude.

Actually, do you want my umbrella?

Do you have it?

Yeah, it's on the backpack in the outside pocket.

Oh, this is wet.

Did you not dry it?

It's not wet.

This is Leon's umbrella.

It's slightly damp.

Feel it?

Yeah.

A little bit.

Smell it?

It doesn't smell bad.

And it's not rusted.

Dude, this thing is compact, man.

Oh, yeah.

You don't even want to know how much that cost me.

How much?

You don't even want to know.

How much?

You'll figure it out.

This is a very compact umbrella.

Did you see how small it was? and it's like just for one person.

Leon has a hat on so he doesn't need an umbrella but I do.

Although I did put on sunscreen this morning.

But there is like a nice breeze as well

so sometimes the breeze comes through but when the breeze is not there it's hot.

Yeah the breeze like goes up my pants so it like just cools me down but it's not a very strong breeze.

Let's start walking.

This is something I really want to see so.

And apparently it's huge right?

Like this whole complex.

We're entering from the side entrance.

Yeah.

What was it?

The west entrance?

east the east entrance this is the east the south entrance is the nicest entrance

because you get a walk up to it right exactly right now we're going at it from the side

but it is like the farthest to walk from the train station yeah

you can see in front of us these beautiful rows of trees

it's still a nice pathway up to the temple of heaven i will say and there are a lot of people

Right now, it's summer holiday in China, so it's very busy.

Actually, I haven't seen any convenience stores.

I wonder why.

Is that like, are they like banned or?

They're definitely not banned, but I guess they're just like not that common.

Maybe they just look different than what we're used to.

I don't know, but I actually have not seen any.

And I'm used to drinking a lot of water now.

And right now, I'm very dehydrated because I just haven't been drinking any water.

But right behind you, you can see a big tour group, like a bunch of people.

all westerners they look like they're from all different countries so

and these trees are all very beautiful right yeah they're like high elevation trees pine trees yeah

or pine type trees no i i really like them and you can see the shadow of the tree what oh

i i'm blind so i did not know what

that was i almost stepped on like what what is anyway

this park is it's like a park it's against a garden it's absolutely massive like it looks like a forest.

Like look at how far it goes.

But all of this is within the walls of the Temple of Heaven.

I actually don't really know much about the Temple of Heaven.

Why don't we learn about it together?

Let me get some fun facts about the Temple of Heaven here for you guys.

Okay so the first fun fact about the Temple of Heaven.

It is four times larger than the Forbidden City.

Now let's have a quick english test imagine

you get a text saying your package couldn't be delivered click here to update your address would you trust it

102

And a lot of you guys, I remember we're saying that it's going to be very busy

103

because it's summer break in china

104

but i don't find it like crazy busy well the train was pretty busy

105

but that's like a normal for any like big city the train to be

106

that busy yeah that's true

107

so i feel like that's normal maybe at rush hour it's going to be crazy busy

108

but anyway we have some fun facts here

109

and now i remember this one

110

i remember seeing a tick tock video of how the temple of heaven was built

111

but let me let me read this for you you guys can shadow along and practice your pronunciation

112

The Temple of Heaven in Beijing is a masterpiece of architectural geometry built by the Yongli Emperor in 1420.

113

This sacred imperial site was built so Chinese emperors could pray for great harvests and cosmic harmony.

114

That's according to the UNESCO World Heritage website.

115

And a fun fact is that this temple was built without any nails.

116

So there are no nails holding this temple together, which is kind of crazy.

117

That's crazy.

118

Yeah.

119

We'll probably spend most of the day here.

120

It's almost 4 p .m.

121

So we'll just go around, explore all these grounds, see the Temple of Heaven.

122

And hopefully, knock on wood, knock, knock, hopefully we can find something to drink.

123

Because I think all I've had today is that bottle of water in the morning.

124

And that water at the restaurant we ate at and that coke.

125

I need a lot more liquid.

126

I need like at least two liters of liquid.

127

Hopefully we can find a convenience store so I can buy some electrolytes.

128

But let's keep exploring.

129

This place is very beautiful.

130

Let's go to the front.

131

Okay so we can finally see the temple of heaven there in the background

132

but you can also see there are a lot of people.

133

So it's like really busy and I think we should go

134

and walk under there in the shade and walk up to the temple of heaven.

135

But if you see further up there are a lot of people

136

and now there's a tour group in front of us

137

so that's just even more people

138

and the worst thing is loki being behind a tour group as loki

139

and i'm gonna go to those vending machines first oh are there oh okay

140

we're gonna go to the vending machines hopefully they have something to drink

141

then we'll go up to the temple of heaven sweat

142

because everyone's body heat is gonna be radiating

143

and we're just gonna be sweating sweating sweating

144

but to cool off we'll have a nice walk through the grounds here let's go

145

okay so we just got through the that gate right there

146

that leads into the temple of heaven here

147

and we had a little bit of difficulty

148

because we had to buy our ticket there

149

because i guess we didn't buy the right ticket at the entrance no

150

i think this broke no way are you kidding me you know how much i paid for

151

that probably probably a dollar it was 150 bucks no it wasn't yeah

152

if you paid

153

that much for this you got ripped off

154

it's good just keep pushing oh

155

there you go was not broken anyway temple of heaven very beautiful honestly not as busy as i thought

156

it would be it's just busy to get in

157

because the gate is like really narrow but besides

158

that it's not very busy anyway let's go let's go walk around

159

and explore because this is like this is really beautiful

160

but i'm also really excited to see the forbidden city as well

161

because i know

162

that is just as beautiful okay

163

now we'll have a shadowing segment here at the temple of heaven make sure to shadow me

164

and really focus on your accent

165

and your pronunciation we are here at the temple of heaven

166

in beijing standing before the magnificent hall of prayer for good

167

harvests the circular building rises above us with its deep blue roof, intricate patterns, and carefully balanced design.

168

Bright sunlight shines across the stone courtyard while soft clouds slowly drift through the sky.

169

Visitors filled the wide terraces surrounding the hall.

170

Some people are taking photographs, others are resting in the shade,

171

and several visitors are wearing beautiful traditional clothing although the area is crowded the atmosphere still feels calm respectful

172

and surprisingly peaceful looking up at the building I feel both impressed

173

and humbled its size immediately captures my attention

174

but the smaller details make it even more remarkable every color shape

175

and decorative element appears deliberate as though nothing was added without

176

a purpose standing here feels different from simply seeing the temple in a photograph

177

we can hear the conversations around us feel the warmth of the sun

178

and experience the scale of this structure for ourselves the entire scene feels elegant historic

179

and unforgettable okay so we walked around about half of the temple

180

and now we're on the west side because we entered through the east right Yeah.

181

I think that kid just dropped his water bottle.

182

But this side you can see is a lot quieter.

183

It's not as busy.

184

There aren't as many people.

185

Tell me, how would you guys describe this scene?

186

I know you just had the shadowing segment, so use some of those phrases you learned to describe this scene.

187

To me, this scene is very, very beautiful.

188

Almost majestic.

189

And on this side of the temple, it is not very crowded.

190

And what's one more sentence you can use to describe the scene?

191

I want you guys to put that in the comments.

192

Give me one more sentence.

193

Let's keep walking around.

194

I want to walk around the whole side of the temple and see it.

195

This is like really beautiful, in my opinion.

196

I like China.

197

Shout out all my Chinese viewers.

198

Say all the Chinese words you know.

199

Thank you.

200

I'm a little bit of a drink.

201

Let's go.

202

So what do you think of the Temple of Heaven now that we've seen it all?

203

It was nice.

204

It was nice.

205

It's massive.

206

Massive, beautiful, ancient.

207

Busy too.

208

Historic, cultural.

209

It was pretty beautiful.

210

It was quite beautiful in my opinion.

211

I'm tired now though.

212

All those carbs for lunch are really hitting me now.

213

Yeah, we had a lot of carbs, noodles for lunch.

214

Yeah, my stomach feels like it's going to explode

215

because i also drank a coke outside at that vending machine

216

but when it fell it like shook a bunch so

217

when i opened it it was just bubbles and i was drinking it

218

and then my stomach just got super bloated

219

and now i don't feel very good

220

but hey yeah i still need some water too

221

but the lawn outside here is very nice like they take care of it quite well

222

you can see they mow the lawn it's been mowed recently oh yeah

223

but there's still a lot to explore here so let's start walking down this big entrance and head into the forest.

224

The first thing I noticed when I walked in here is that the floor is very uneven.

225

So I almost rolled my ankle when I was walking here.

226

Did you notice how uneven the floor is?

227

Yeah, I almost rolled my ankle back there.

228

I know, I just said the same thing.

229

I felt it.

230

But yeah, I believe this is the echo chamber, right?

231

Uh, no. That's the echo chamber.

232

Isn't that echo chamber back there?

233

No, I thought that was the altar.

234

Oh, maybe.

235

I believe this is echo chamber though maybe there is a sign somewhere here

236

but it is quite crowded there are a lot of people oh okay

237

so this is the imperial vault of heaven

238

so this right here is the exit and they are closing soon so this place closes at 5 30.

239

oh it's already five o 'clock pretty much 4 55

240

so five minutes to five so it's going to be open for another 35 minutes

241

so you can see a lot of people are leaving

242

and that's why it says closing up top there

243

but i believe this is the last thing we need to see circular what does

244

that say mound

245

so this sign no drone zone yeah apparently all of beijing is a no drone zone

246

so you can't fly drones you can't smoke

247

and you can't have an open flame yeah

248

you cannot fly drone anywhere in beijing that's why i didn't bring my drone here yeah that's

249

That's probably smart.

250

It's not like you'd be able to use it.

251

Exactly.

252

This is the last thing here that we can explore.

253

This place is huge.

254

This is the biggest square we've seen so far.

255

Wow.

256

So now let's walk up this altar.

257

You can see the sign here says, up only.

258

After you visit, please use stairs located on the sides of the building to exit.

259

Let's go up the altar.

260

I'm the cameraman now you gotta help me up a bit oh get off okay

261

we're at the top everyone is gathering around in the center here

262

i wonder what there is oh oh

263

there's an empress dripped out oh oh they were just taking a photo bruh i thought

264

that lady in the middle was like worked here

265

and i thought i thought she was like part of it and then she just left.

266

I don't know then she just left and someone else went in the center.

267

I thought she was just part of it.

268

I don't even know.

269

Maybe I'm tripping but now everyone is just standing in the middle I guess for some reason.

270

That'd be a good spot to take a 360 picture.

271

Oh yeah if you have a 360 camera you can like put it up in the air

272

and that would be a nice picture.

273

Oh so I guess they bow to each corner or towards each direction.

274

Yeah.

275

Northeast, East Southwest.

276

Oh, that's interesting.

277

I wonder what it means.

278

Now our goal is to, I guess, find the exit and walk out of here.

279

Get something to drink.

280

Try to explore a little bit more because we only have half an hour left.

281

But I think after that, is there a viewpoint where we can see the Temple of Heaven at night?

282

Because I read online that at night is very beautiful.

283

I think you can go to a restaurant or something.

284

No, I heard there's like a mountain, like somewhere that you can climb up and have a view of the Temple of Heaven.

285

and it's like very beautiful at night yeah i think we should do

286

that at night so we can have a nice view of it okay

287

so now we're leaving the temple of heaven here through the south entrance this is the main entrance

288

and exit i want you guys to also answer these questions let's have a post game interview

289

that just means let's have a conversation after going through the whole temple of heaven

290

so we arrived at 3 p .m

291

and it is now it is now 5 06

292

so we spent about two hours there exploring the whole thing and I don't even think we saw like half of it.

293

What do you think?

294

Yeah I mean we saw like the main parts but we probably explored like 20 % of it.

295

We saw all the main parts but we didn't like explore every nook

296

and cranny of the temple of heaven or not the temple of heaven but all the grounds.

297

Yeah.

298

That just means we didn't explore everywhere every nook and cranny.

299

That's a very common expression to use that next time.

300

What did you think of the temple of heaven i thought

301

it was really nice

302

it's crazy how they have such a massive park in the center of the city yeah

303

it doesn't even feel like we're in beijing anymore

304

it just feels like it really is big it's like almost 800 acres of land

305

which is like really really big but it's nice to have all

306

that like green space and green area

307

because a lot of people also come like work out here

308

and just walk through the grounds because i read online

309

that a lot of like older people use this as like their workout yeah workout area

310

so they come and work out and walk through the grounds

311

so i think that's good yeah

312

i don't think uh chinese people have to pay to get in they just have to show their id yeah

313

so they can come and use this area whenever they want yeah that's one thing i saw

314

when we were going in we had to scan a qr code um like our ticket

315

but everyone else just had like their id and they were just tapping

316

that so i guess they don't need to pay obviously

317

That makes sense since this is their country, so they could just go in.

318

I feel like that's normal.

319

Usually in like your home country, it's either cheaper or you don't pay at all.

320

What about Canada?

321

No, in Canada, you pay.

322

Canada, everyone pays the same price, whether you're Canadian or a tourist.

323

Facts.

324

There's no like special discounts for Canadians.

325

Unless I've just never seen it.

326

Have you seen it?

327

I've never seen that.

328

Like going to the national parks?

329

I think it costs more if you're a local.

330

It costs more if you're a local?

331

You get a discount if you're a foreigner.

332

Really?

333

Yeah.

334

But it's also your home country.

335

So why is your home country charging you more?

336

Yeah.

337

Do they not want you to explore and do tourism in your home country?

338

Exactly.

339

A little bit odd.

340

What was your favorite part of the day?

341

Probably the first time seeing the main temple of heaven.

342

I was like, wow.

343

Like I've seen so many pictures of it online and it's been in like, like comics I've read and stuff.

344

And I was like, wow, that looks really crazy.

345

It looks way bigger in person.

346

Yeah.

347

It was really nice.

348

Like it was so crowded to see the inside of it, but I managed to catch a glimpse.

349

It looked like it was just a throne room inside

350

because I guess that's where the emperor would go

351

and pray for I believe it was a good harvest and also cosmic

352

luck or something something something along those lines something like that yeah what was your favorite part of today?

353

Let me know in the comments by typing out your answer and putting it in the comments.

354

Next question have you ever been to the temple of heaven in person?

355

Have you ever been to temple of heaven yes

356

i have been to the temple of heaven before no

357

i haven't been to the temple of heaven before let me know in the comments whether you have been here or not

358

and what was your experience like was it busier than this was it not as busy to me

359

it wasn't overwhelmingly busy it was busy but it wasn't like

360

so busy that it wasn't enjoyable you know like it was it was okay like it was busy

361

but nothing crazy yeah i was expecting it to be busier

362

because china is just like the biggest country in the world

363

or the second biggest country in the world by population

364

so i was just expecting a lot of people but not really

365

that many one thing i noticed is

366

that most tourists are chinese oh yeah majority like domestic tourism

367

so there are a lot of chinese tourists

368

which i think is good you know seeing your own country

369

and stuff china is very beautiful look at how beautiful

370

that pine forest in front of us looks like the row

371

of trees on the side the people walking through there it's actually

372

so nice dude you can tell everything was planted though like everything's in a perfect line even the trees

373

that are in the grassy area but

374

that just i feel like it just makes it more beautiful honestly yeah

375

because everything is just like kind of like perfection

376

but it's super nice look at this little kid oh wow cute kid what's

377

that candy comb that's really famous in china isn't it it's from china now let's exit it's almost 5 30

378

so we should get out of here yeah let's go find

379

a convenience store try some chinese snacks get something to drink so we don't die and then finish the video off there.

380

Can I try this one?

381

One please.

382

Thank you.

383

Thank you.

384

Okay, I just got my first tonghulu.

385

I wanted to try the strawberry, so I got the strawberry.

386

But I also wanted to try the grape, so I got grape as well.

387

Dude, this paper is, like, getting stuck onto it.

388

Is that normal?

389

No. You're not supposed to eat this, are you?

390

Well, yeah, it is edible.

391

It's edible paper.

392

Oh, is it?

393

Yeah.

394

Because I was about to say, I'm like, I don't know how I feel about that.

395

Okay.

396

Oh, you eat it?

397

You eat it?

398

Yeah.

399

Oh.

400

Okay.

401

Okay, well, I took that off.

402

Okay, so that lady told me something in Chinese, which I assume means you're not supposed to rip it off.

403

Oh, yeah, I did rip some sugar off.

404

Just on the first one, though.

405

This is my first time trying this.

406

Oh, have you had it before?

407

Yeah, I've had it before. Where?

408

i've had it in thailand i mean it tastes exactly what it looks like yeah fruit with sugar

409

let me know what is your favorite flavor of tongue tongue hulu i'm definitely saying

410

that wrong you cooked 100 chance

411

but look at it you see the outside is hard it's very hard you can't hear it

412

but there's like sugar you can see it just cracked this is a grape this is a strawberry

413

You're supposed to leave this paper on it, but I pulled it off.

414

As you can see, I never had this before.

415

My hands are sticky.

416

I just found this water randomly there, but it looks sealed, so I'll drink it.

417

Gnarly.

418

Why is it cold?

419

You know Beijing gets freezing cold in the winter?

420

Oh, yeah.

421

Same with Korea.

422

Yeah.

423

Korea is pretty similar.

424

Very beautiful, warm summers, but cold, cold, cold winters.

425

Anyway, that was my first time trying this it was pretty good.

426

I would get it again I would prefer if the fruit was more sour though.

427

It was pretty sweet.

428

Everything was sweet on sweet I would prefer if it was sour and sweet

429

They probably soaked that fruit in sugar before they coat it

430

Maybe but I hope you guys liked the video here at the last shadowing segment of the day

431

Just outside the main area of the temple of heaven the atmosphere becomes much quieter

432

Tall, mature trees surround the wide stone path and their twisting branches form a natural canopy overhead.

433

Sunlight filters gently through the leaves, creating patches of light and shadow across the ground.

434

The uneven stones beneath our feet are partly covered with soft green moss,

435

which makes this part of the park feel old, peaceful and untouched.

436

A few birds move across the path while visitors stroll slowly in the distance.

437

Compared with the crowded temple, this forested area feels spacious and surprisingly calm.

438

As we walk beneath the trees, we can hear leaves rustling, birds calling, and faint conversations from far away.

439

The air feels cooler here because the thick branches protect us from the direct sunlight.

440

After spending hours exploring beneath the hot sun, standing in the shade provides immediate relief.

441

This quiet setting creates a completely different feeling from the magnificent temple nearby.

442

The temple inspires awe, whereas the surrounding forest encourages us to slow down,

443

Pronuncia a cui fare attenzione

Chi parla usa 99 contrazioni e forme ridotte, come don't, I'm, we're. Pronunciale nella forma breve, così come le senti.

I suoni “th”: beneath /bɪˈniːθ/, clothing /ˈkloʊðɪŋ/, thick /θɪk/, breathe /bɹiːð/, gather /ˈɡæðɚ/
I suoni “sh” e “zh”: shadow /ˈʃædəʊ̯/, pronunciation /pɹəˌnʌn.siˈeɪ.ʃən/, shade /ʃeɪd/, suspicious /səˈspɪʃ.əs/, rush /ɹʌʃ/
Parole lunghe — attenzione all’accento: pronunciation /pɹəˌnʌn.siˈeɪ.ʃən/, imperial /ɪmˈpɪɹ.i.əl/, surprisingly /səˈpɹaɪzɪŋli/, magnificent /mæɡˈnɪfəsənt/, architectural /ˌɑɹkɪˈtɛkt͡ʃəɹəl/

I suoni difficili per chi parla italiano:

/h/ — va soffiata, non è muta: harvest /ˈhɑɹ.vəst/, whereas /(h)wɛɹˈæz/, harmony /ˈhɑ̟ɹ.mə.ni/, overhead /ˈəʊvəˌhɛd/
Consonante finale — senza aggiungere una vocale dopo: entrance /ˈɛn.tɹəns/, exit /ˈɛɡzət/, breeze /bɹiːz/, segment /ˈsɛɡmɛnt/, sweat /swɛt/
/æ/ — più aperta della “e”: shadow /ˈʃædəʊ̯/, scam /ˈskæm/, atmosphere /ˈætməsˌfɪɹ/, photograph /ˈfoʊ.təˌɡɹæf/, accent /ækˈsɛnt/

Come esercitarsi con questo video

Ascolta tutto il video una volta senza parlare e annota le parole che non conosci.
Inizia a velocità 0,75×, fai shadowing frase per frase e torna alla velocità normale quando diventa facile.
Registrati e confronta con l’originale, facendo attenzione a parole come temple, explore, entrance.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
