The photographer uses a level shooting angle to ensure the portrait is flat and not tilted, placing the emperor as the main subject in the center of the frame. The symmetrical structure of the dragon patterns on the attire and the chair enhances the solemnity. The framing includes the full portrait (from the head to the bottom of the chair) as well as the surrounding yellow walls and the carpet at the bottom, preserving all the details. Travel Tips: Peak season ticket (April 1 - November 15) is 10 RMB, off-season ticket (November 16 - March 31) is 5 RMB.
