I rarely shoot nightscapes, but this time I chose to visit the Giant Wild Goose Pagoda after dark. The moment the pagoda and the Tang Dynasty Ever-Bright City lit up, I finally understood what "the golden age of Chang'an" truly meant.
This might be the easiest ground-level spot to capture a stunning aerial-like view of the Giant Wild Goose Pagoda—no drone needed!
Location: Hou Cun Jia Yuan, Building 1 (10-minute walk from the North Square of Giant Wild Goose Pagoda)
Access: No keycard required—easy entry
Note: Be respectful of residents while shooting
