It is recommended to use a centered composition, placing the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests in the center of the frame to highlight its symmetry. Use a level shot to maintain a stable visual effect. For the framing, include the foreground’s stone pavement to enhance the sense of depth. Wait for the sunlight to break through the clouds to capture the interplay of light and shadow, adding layers and atmosphere to the sky in the background. A wide-angle lens is suggested to ensure the完整性 of the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests and to capture the lighting effects. Travel Tips: The entrance fee is 15 RMB per person, and the park is open from 6:30 AM to 10:00 PM (last entry at 9:00 PM). Since the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests closes at 6:00 PM, you can only shoot from the outer areas after that time.
