The photographer chose a location that could accommodate both the statue of Xuanzang and the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, with an appropriate distance to ensure the subjects were fully captured in the frame. A central composition was used, placing the Big Wild Goose Pagoda at the center of the image to highlight its prominence, with the Xuanzang statue as a foreground element to add depth and narrative to the scene. A medium telephoto lens was employed to effectively compress space, closely integrating the Big Wild Goose Pagoda with the Xuanzang statue in the frame and reducing background distractions. Travel Tips: ① Ticket Price: 25 yuan per person for climbing the Big Wild Goose Pagoda; ② Opening Hours: 09:00 to 17:00.
