Must-visit photography spots in Kasumigaura

Must-visit photography spots for Xiapu photography:

1. East route

East route: Xiaohao, Beiqi, Dongbi, Huazhu, Sansha Fishing port, Dayushan Island; its shooting highlights: sunset on the east wall, sunrise on flowers and bamboos, sandy tidal flats, tiger beach, and pole shadow.

2. Xiaohao Beach

Xiaohao Beach is one of the most classic shooting spots for beach scenery. It is about 18 kilometers away from Xiapu. Xiaohao Beach is a beach where photography can be done morning and evening in any season. As long as there is light, this beach is an ever-changing creative base. Mainly photographing the beach scenery under the sunset, fishermen fishing for fry, and seaweed drying scenes with smooth and backlit sandy beaches. Xiaohao mainly focuses on sandy tidal flats. When shooting with the light, you can see the huge golden tidal flats under the mountain changing with the waves. When viewing this tidal flat with the backlight, the strips flow from the beach. The stream turned into a meandering tidal artery, shining with silver light.

Best shooting point: There are mountains on both sides of Xiaohao. Both mountains have commanding heights for shooting. Climb up the mountain along a roadside path along County Road 981 passing through Xiaohao Village. Take photos of the magnificent seascape and Xiaohao Village below on the high cliffs. ①The northwest of the road is the military zone. It takes 15 minutes to climb to the top of the mountain on the east side. Facing Xiaohao, there are layers of terraces for everyone to take pictures. ②Go downhill towards Sansha Town. There are road traces 1cm above the characters of County Road 981. Climb all the way to the photography point, where you can take photos of Xiaohao Village, the beach, and the sunset.

Transportation: Take the bus to Sansha Town at Xiapu Old Station (near Beimen Hotel, also called Beimen Station). There are many trains, about 15 minutes per train, passing Xiaohao, and the fare is 8 yuan , arriving in 25 minutes.

Xiaohao is suitable for shooting sunsets. At sunset, the light and shadow on the water are very good! Because the road is in the north, the village is close to the road and faces the bay. There is a small hill on the east and west. The hill on the west is a military observation point and is not allowed to enter, so it is not suitable for taking sunrise photos. The hilltop to the east can be accessed freely. Enter from the dirt intersection on the roadside and walk up the dirt road for about 10 minutes. There are two photo locations here, one on the roadside and a few rocks further down. There is no strict limit on the number of people on the roadside. Many people can stand, and the rocks below can hold about 5-6 tripods.

You can shoot with smooth lighting here. Arrive at 2pm. When the sun is about to set, Xiaohao's glow is particularly beautiful. It is best to shoot the glow in Xiapu in one go. The light ratio is too large and cannot be processed later. After the sun went down, I took a detour to the back of the mountain to take pictures. I waited until the remaining light faded and the sky turned blue, but I had to control the time because I couldn't go down the mountain after dark. Xiaohao is suitable for telephoto lenses of 300-400 or above, so that you can take pictures of the fishermen and beaches on the opposite side. Xiaohaodong is the east side of Xiaohaodong. It is a good location for taking photos of the harbor with backlighting in the evening. Whenever the tide recedes, some seawater will remain on the beach, reflecting the skylight. As the sky changes, the color of the beach will also change strangely, and unexpected scenes often appear. Xiaohaoxi is the west side of Xiaohao. It is a good place to take pictures of the harbor in the evening. ?

3. East Wall

The East Wall is located two kilometers from Xiaohao toward Sansha. There is Liuyun Temple on the roadside. Especially during the seaweed season, the treacherous shadows of poles, boats passing by, and the setting sun melting gold make it one of the ideal spots to take photos of the sunset seascape. At the mouth of the beach, there is a winding water channel beach, with small streams passing through it, washing out a complex and changeable texture. The soft lines show contrasting colors of different warm and blue tones under the afterglow of the setting sun. You can take pictures of the sunrise scene.

Go to the east wall at four in the afternoon and grab a spot. Almost everyone occupies a piece of the reef. After sunset, you can stay and wait for the soft afterglow and even more beautiful scenery. When the sky darkens, the golden shelf in the water becomes more beautiful and obvious. The orange sky and golden sea are stunning. 0.6 dimmer filter, slow shutter speed, the effect is very harmonious. Half an hour later, the last ray of light almost disappeared from the horizon, leaving only a touch of blue and a touch of red on the open sea.

Best shooting location: There is a Catholic church on the roadside in Dongbi Village. Passing over the hill on the path behind the church, you can see a small dirt road stepped out of the rubble. Down to the sea.

Transportation: Take the shuttle bus to Sansha Town from Xiapu Old Station (near Beimen Hotel, also called Beimen Station). It leaves every 15 minutes and passes through the east wall. The fare is 11 yuan and the journey takes 50 minutes. .
