A temperature sensing system senses a temperature in the monitor space. The temperature sensing system includes a first detector, a second detector, and a processing unit. The first detector detects a temperature on a ceiling and outputs first information about the temperature on the ceiling. The second detector detects infrared radiation emitted from a floor and outputs second information about the infrared radiation from the floor. The processing unit calculates, based on at least the first information and the second information, a spatial temperature distribution which includes a component in a height direction with respect to the monitor space between the ceiling and the floor.
