The photographer stands below the Taihe Palace, using an upward angle to emphasize the height of the eaves and brackets. The composition is symmetrical, with the brackets evenly distributed on both sides and the central ridge ornament positioned at the center of the frame, reinforcing the grandeur of the architecture. The focus is on the detailed carpentry of the brackets, with a clean, uncluttered blue sky serving as the background. Travel Tips: The area can be very crowded on weekends and holidays. It’s recommended to visit during off-peak hours.
