Use a frame-within-a-frame composition, with surrounding branches as the natural foreground frame, to highlight the roof of the ancient building (including tiles and carvings) and a section of the red wall, enhancing the depth of the scene. The photographer should shoot from a low angle, looking up, to emphasize the height and details of the architecture. The frame should include the foreground branches, parts of the main building (roof decorations, red wall, brick structure), and the blue sky in the background, with vivid color contrasts. A medium-telephoto lens is recommended to focus on the architectural details and avoid clutter in the image. Travel Tips: 1. Ticket Prices: Combined ticket 34 RMB (includes the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvest, Echo Wall, and Circular Mound), General ticket 15 RMB. 2. Opening Hours: Park: 6:00 AM to 10:00 PM (last entry at 9:00 PM); Core attractions (Hall of Prayer for Good Harvest, etc.): 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM (last entry at 5:30 PM).
