Use a low-angle shot with the stone tablet centered in the frame. Employ a foreground-background composition, where the inscribed stone tablet is prominently featured in the foreground, and the Great Wall’s fortifications, along with green trees to the left and an arched gate to the right, are included in the background. This enhances the sense of depth and ensures that both the stone tablet and the entirety of the fortifications are fully visible, while retaining the surrounding environment details. Travel Tip: The entrance fee is 40 yuan per person.
