Xiamen travel: Shapowei photo guide! Stunning!

Here is a guide to taking photos at Shapowei, Xiamen: Recommended photo spots • Shapowei Art West District: The colorful rainbow wall is a must-see; from the third-floor terrace, you can take a bird's-eye view of the typhoon shelter, like a scene from a Hayao Miyazaki manga. • Specialty shops: Juicy Bakery, with its European style, is perfect for vintage photos; ENSEMBLE 191 is a green detached building, and the bench at the entrance is perfect for artistic photos. • Street corners: The corner cooperative combines Japanese style with the Twin Towers in the background; Xiaoyudao Bookstore, the most beautiful corner of Shapowei, is a filming location for "Hidden Love." • Other locations: Take photos of Xiamen commemorative stamps at TOP POPO TOY; take photos of the fusion of history and modernity in front of Xiamen Chaozong Palace. Photography tips • Use light: The light is good at around 10:30 am or 3 pm, and side lighting can capture the three-dimensionality of buildings and people. • Find angles: Take a bird's-eye view from the third-floor terrace opposite Chachas, or take a low-angle shot of the building, or shoot through windows, flowers, and other frames. • Add elements: Wait for pedestrians to pass by to add a sense of story to the picture, or take photos with local snacks or specialty drinks. Outfit suggestions It is recommended to wear Japanese, fresh, and artistic clothing, such as light-colored dresses, shorts with shirts, etc., and carry a canvas bag to better match the atmosphere of Shapowei.
