The photographer stands on the stone path in front of the red wall, capturing a composition where the red wall and flower beds form a leading line from left to right. The building is positioned at the right one-third of the frame (using the rule of thirds), balancing the sky and the ground. The composition includes the background sky, the foreground stone path, and the mid-ground red wall, flower beds, and gate, enhancing the depth of the scene. Travel Tip: The admission fee is 60 yuan.
