Where can we choose the place for sacrifice?

Flatland
This is the most primitive and simplest place for sacrifice. The ancients believed that the most important sacrifices were held in the most simple places. Often, there was no need to build an altar with earth. They could hold a sacrifice by just sweeping a flat piece of ground. The ancients called it "墠". "The Book of Rites: Ritual Vessels" states: "The utmost respect does not involve setting up an altar, but sweeping the floor before offering sacrifices." "The Book of Rites: Sacrifice Rituals" says: "Clear the floor to make a grave."
altar
The Book of Rites: Sacrifices notes: "The earth is piled up to form an altar", which means to pile up earth and stones to form an altar above the ground. The altars have different shapes depending on the objects of worship. The round altar used for offering sacrifices to heaven was called "round mound" in ancient times; the square altar used for offering sacrifices to earth was called "square mound" in ancient times. The height and width of the altar vary according to time, place, and level. Altars and temples were usually located on the outskirts of the city, but occasionally on mountains. The Fengshan ceremony of the Qin and Han dynasties was to build an altar on the top of Mount Tai to offer sacrifices to the heaven, which was called "feng"; and to sweep the ground on Mount Liangfu to make a grave to offer sacrifices to the earth, which was called "chan"; together they were called "fengshan".
