Sacrifice to Heaven (Chinese: 祭天; pinyin: Jìtiān) is an Asian religious practice originating in the worship of Shangdi in China. In Ancient Chinese society, nobles of all levels constructed altars for Heaven. At first, only nobles could worship Shangdi[1][2] but later beliefs changed and everyone could worship Shangdi.
Modern Confucian churches make this practice available to all believers and it continues in China without a monarch.
It has been influential on areas outside of China including Japan, Vietnam, and Korea.
The Jì (祭) in the Chinese name is the same Je as in Jesa.
