What it means
round
Spot it here
Underfoot on the Circular Mound’s stone rings, and in the plan of 祈年殿 — heaven drawn as a closed loop.
Remember this
Press your palm on the mound’s curved rail: 圆 here is the sky’s outline in stone, not a logo flourish. If the floor keeps turning into a ring, you’re still in heaven-talk territory.
