Photography Tips
Use a centered composition, placing the plaque in the middle of the frame to ensure the red border and blue text area are fully symmetrical. The photographer should face the plaque directly, shooting at a level angle to keep the image straight. Frame the shot to include some of the surrounding green and gold architectural decorations, enhancing the environmental atmosphere. It is recommended to use a standard lens and adjust the exposure to ensure the gold text is clear and not reflective. Travel Tips: ① Admission Price: Off-season 40 RMB, Peak season 60 RMB; ② Opening Hours: 8:30 AM - 5:00 PM, closed on Mondays.
