Photo Spots at the Alila Yangshuo, Guilin! The scenery here is stunning

Here is a guide to photo spots at the Alila Yangshuo, Guilin: Pre-shoot Preparation • Outfit: Prepare industrial, retro, or fashionable minimalist outfits, such as a black suit or a retro dress. You can also choose local ethnic clothing. • Shooting Equipment: Bring a camera and phone. Use a wide-angle lens for panoramic shots and a telephoto lens for close-ups. You can also prepare auxiliary equipment such as a tripod and fill light. Best Time to Shoot • Early Morning: 6–8am, the light is soft. You can capture the tranquil hotel scenery and the sunrise over the Li River. • Dusk: 5–7pm, the setting sun dyes the landscape and buildings with golden light, making it ideal for shooting both people and scenery. Photo Spots • Instagrammable Pool: The hotel's iconic photo spot. The pool overlooks the Li River. Shoot from different angles, using an ultra-wide angle for large scenes, or a medium focal length for half-body close-ups. Pose on the lounge chairs by the pool, or use floating props in the water to enhance the atmosphere. • "Keep the Motherland in Mind and the World in View" Wall: A distinctive wall on the side of the front lobby. Capture the beauty of the architectural structure by shooting through the reflection in the pool with an ultra-wide-angle lens at a diagonal angle. • Villa Area: Shoot the reflection of the villas from a distance, or use the sun to your advantage to photograph people and buildings, ensuring even lighting and avoiding overexposure of the background. • Lattice Frame: The lattice frame next to the front entrance. Sit or lean against it and use the light to your advantage to highlight the light and shadow effects. • Accommodation Area Corridor: The light is better on the 3rd floor and above. Use a telephoto lens to create a sense of spatial blur. You can capture people walking or standing in the corridor. • SPA Spiral Staircase: A spiral staircase located in the underground space, running through a karst cave, with natural rock colors as the main tone. It is suitable for shooting fashionable and mysterious photos.
