Shoot from the arch in front of Huangqian Hall, using a frame-within-a-frame composition with the arch and the trees on both sides as natural borders to highlight the Qiniandian. Face the building directly and shoot from a low angle to enhance its towering presence. The composition should include the arch in the foreground, the full view of the Qiniandian, and the night sky in the background, creating a clear sense of depth. Use a medium telephoto lens to compress the space and emphasize the architectural details, ensuring that the main subject remains clear in the night scene. Travel Tip: It’s recommended to avoid traveling during holidays.

Walking Guide

You can head to the North Gate of the Temple of Heaven, but it’s within the paid area, so you’ll need to buy a ticket for the entire Temple of Heaven Park.
