Photography Tips
I recommend framing the Welcoming Pine in the center of your composition. The best spot for a close-up is from the innermost railing, as it allows you to get close. Be aware that the area can get crowded, making it difficult to get a good shot. Alternatively, you can find a higher vantage point from the square, but be cautious and ensure your safety. It’s advisable to check the weather forecast in advance. The best times for photography are around sunrise, around 5:30 AM, and sunset, around 6:30 PM. Try to avoid the crowds, as getting a closer shot of the Welcoming Pine will yield better results.
Walking Guide

At the Huangshan South Gate ticket checkpoint, you need to buy your tickets in advance and queue to enter.

After getting off the cable car, walk to the right and climb a set of stairs to reach the Welcoming Guest Pine.
