The photographer stands in front of the stone monument, using a level shooting angle to emphasize the monument’s height and the towering mountain walls. The symmetrical composition places the monument at the center of the frame, with the mountain walls evenly distributed on either side to enhance the sense of balance. The shot includes the main body of the monument, its red base, and the canyon walls behind it, with a bit of sky added to increase depth.

Travel Tip: The entrance fee is 40 RMB.
