Photography Tips
The model is on the top platform, and the photographer is on the second platform. 1. Photography Poses: ① For morning shots, the backlighting can make the railing and square look great. The person can stand in front of the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvest, with their back facing the empty square. ② Place one hand on the railing, lean forward slightly, and look toward the distant buildings. ③ Rest one hand on the railing and naturally turn your head while the hem of your dress or skirt is fluttering. 2. Travel Tips: ① Admission Fees: The entrance ticket for the Temple of Heaven Park is 10 CNY per person, and the combined ticket is 28 CNY per person. ② Opening Hours: 6:00 AM - 10:00 PM (The Hall of Prayer for Good Harvest is closed on Mondays; only the combined ticket allows entry to the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvest). ③ Best Photography Times: In winter, take photos before 4:00 PM to get better shots. In summer, the best times are 8:00 AM - 10:00 AM and 4:00 PM - 6:00 PM. 3. Outfit Suggestions: ① It is recommended to wear a modern Chinese style, such as a modern cheongsam or a simple dress, which pairs well with the classical architecture of the Temple of Heaven. ② For women: A modified cheongsam or Hanfu with a lightweight shawl, a simple long dress, and Chinese-style accessories. ③ For men: A linen shirt and straight-leg pants, or a black Zhongshan suit or modern suit.
