Photography Tips
The photographer stands directly in front of the Buddha statue, using a low-angle shot, with the plaque and the Buddha as the central axis for symmetrical composition. The stone statues on both sides are evenly distributed across the image, highlighting the Buddha and the plaque in the center. The frame includes the Buddha statue, the stone statues on both sides, and the Ren De Da Long plaque above. The red interior walls and top decorations of the building are retained. A wide-angle lens is used to ensure symmetrical balance in the image, showing an overall sense of solemnity. Travel Tips: Purchase tickets on the Forbidden City Museum's WeChat mini-program one week in advance. Avoid going empty-handed and enter the palace as early as possible in the morning. Start with the central axis tour to avoid peak crowds.
