It is recommended to use a centered composition; the dragon-shaped relief sculpture is positioned at the center of the frame, with the surrounding octagonal and square frames forming a symmetrical structure to highlight the main subject and layers. The photographer is advised to shoot from a slightly elevated position above the relief, capturing the entire view of the ceiling, including the central dragon sculpture and the surrounding decorative carvings. A wide-angle lens is recommended to ensure clear details and a complete structure. Admission fee: 20 CNY per person.
