Using the rule of thirds, the character "爨" is placed at the left one-third of the frame, while the right side includes red lanterns, wooden signs, and colorful signs with phrases like "compare three shops," balancing the composition. The photographer shoots from a low angle, capturing the main subject "爨," the decorative elements on the right, and the green vines above, presenting a complete scene. A standard lens is used to ensure that the main subject and the surrounding details are clear.

Additional tips: Avoid peak hours and visit off-peak to minimize crowds.
