The photographer stands at a corner diagonally in front of the National Aquatics Center, looking up to capture the shot. By utilizing the building's well-organized polygonal "bubble" structure and triangular silhouette, a stable and orderly composition is created. A wide-angle lens is used, which stretches the vertical lines of the building, incorporates more of the main structure, and enhances the sense of depth and volume. Travel Tips: ① Ticket Price: 30 RMB. This fee is charged only for entering the venue. If you just want to walk along the scenic promenade and take photos outside the venue, you don't need to buy a ticket. ② Lighting Time: The lights turn on around 9:40 PM and turn off at 10:00 PM.
