National Day Escape to Yangtian Lake

Capturing the Wild Vitality on the Grasslands

Who can relate? Driving three hours overnight to Yangtian Lake, arriving at Yunlai Banshan Guesthouse at 1:30 AM, and waking up the next morning to a grassland of "free-roaming cattle and horses"—this isn't just photography; it's bottling up 'freedom' in every frame!

📸 Poses for Capturing Freedom & Vitality (with Scene Suggestions)

1. Running on the Grass Slope: Find an empty grass slope, run against the wind away from the camera, and have your friend capture the moment your skirt or hair flutters. The dynamic blur in the shot will perfectly encapsulate the joy of "escaping the city."

2. Posing with Cattle and Horses: Stand at a safe distance behind a herd of cattle or horses, spread your arms, tilt your head back, and smile. Use a wide-angle lens to capture the relaxed vibe of "being on the grasslands, accompanied by cattle and horses." Keep a safe distance for the best shots.

3. Looking Up at Wind Turbines: Walk to the wind turbine area, squat on the grass, and look up at the turbines with your hands resting naturally on your knees. Frame the blue sky, turbines, and grass tips for a shot that makes you look taller and conveys a sense of being "embraced by nature."

4. Sitting and Daydreaming: Sit casually on the grass with your legs stretched out or bent. Prop yourself up with one hand while raising the other to make a peace sign towards the sky. Let the sunlight fall on your side profile, and smile with your eyes closed for a shot brimming with vitality.

✨ Little Joys from the Trip

• Tickets & Parking: National Day tickets are 120 RMB each, and parking is surprisingly free! Arrive early to park close to the entrance, saving you a lot of walking.

• Heartwarming Guesthouse Moments: Huge shoutout to Yunlai Banshan Guesthouse! The hostess treated us like family, helping with luggage, arranging rooms, and even offering us warm milk tea. The rooms were spotless, the bedding was super soft, and we had a great night's sleep despite the late check-in.

🌿 Tips

• Outfit: Go for light colors! A white T-shirt with denim shorts or a floral dress looks amazing against the green grass. Add a straw hat for sun protection and aesthetic appeal.

• Sun Protection: Bring sunscreen and a sun-protective jacket! The UV rays on the grasslands are intense. Don't just focus on taking photos—getting sunburned is no fun.

This short National Day escape was a healing experience, thanks to the winds of Yangtian Lake and the warmth of the guesthouse. Happiness can be so simple—running on the grasslands, meeting cattle and horses, and sipping a cup of warm milk tea from the hostess.
