Photography Tips
Use a top-down angle with the lens directly facing the surface of the dragon-shaped stone carving, clearly showcasing the intricate details of the carving. Employ a centered composition, placing the dragon's head and sinuous body in the center of the frame to highlight the main subject. Minimize the background to focus on the core patterns and auspicious cloud designs of the stone carving, avoiding distractions from the surrounding environment, and enhancing the texture and depth of the carving. Travel Tip: The entrance fee is 40 yuan.
