Recommend that the photographer stands slightly lower than the model, shooting with a slight upward angle to naturally incorporate the figure into the observatory space. Use the glass walls and metal railings of the observatory to form a natural frame, capturing both the figure and the cityscape, enhancing the sense of boundary in the frame. The transparency of the glass can extend the space, making the figure the visual focal point of the "urban viewfinder." A wide-angle lens is recommended for this purpose.

Travel Tips:
① Admission Fees: Adult ticket 180 CNY, Student ticket 120 CNY, Child ticket 90 CNY;
② Operating Hours: 08:30 - 22:00;
③ Best Photography Times: It is recommended to shoot at sunrise or dusk to capture the changing light as the morning sun colors the clouds and the city lights begin to twinkle.
