Profound historical heritage, the source of Hanfu: Beijing, as an ancient capital with a long history, carries a profound Hanfu cultural heritage. Since the Zhou, Qin, Han and Tang dynasties, clothing etiquette has taken root here. The many cultural relics and costumes currently preserved in the Forbidden City in Beijing are the witnesses of the exquisite craftsmanship of ancient Hanfu. Beijing's Hanfu culture has a unique royal style. The solemn and elegant Ming Dynasty Hanfu, with dragon embroidery and gold brocade, is noble and has a unique charm in the imperial city.

Beijing scenery is picturesque, Hanfu adds color: Walking through the streets and alleys of Beijing, the red-walled and yellow-tiled Forbidden City, the solemn Temple of Heaven, and the ancient Nanluoguxiang are all excellent scenes for Hanfu photos. Walking among them in Hanfu, it's like traveling through thousands of years and talking with history. These iconic landscapes complement Hanfu, and the ancient charm and magnificence are intertwined. Any shot will have the texture of a blockbuster, providing a beautiful background for your Hanfu trip.

According to the characteristics of different dynasties, they create suitable makeup and accessories that complement each other. The photography team is well versed in the beauty of ancient charm, and the framing and composition are clever, freezing every beautiful moment, so that you don't have to worry about the details and immerse yourself in the Hanfu experience.

Beijing Hanfu Experience | How to Take Gentle and Elegant Photos at the Summer Palace

Beijing Hanfu Experience | How to Take Gentle and Elegant Photos at the Summer Palace

🏯When it comes to Hanfu culture, the Summer Palace is a must-visit for travel photography in Beijing. The pavilions, towers, and corridors all exude a poetic atmosphere. 👗The best Hanfu style for the Summer Palace is the understated and elegant Song-style Hanfu. The Song Dynasty was known for its simple and elegant clothing, with simple cuts, delicate colors, and a scholarly temperament. If you want to take photos with an ink painting-like atmosphere, Song-style Hanfu is the best choice. 🧢Song Dynasty clothing mainly consisted of beizi, ruqun, and round-collar robes, with light colors such as light green, off-white, and bean blue being the most classic. Compared to the luxurious decorations of other dynasties, Song-style Hanfu focuses more on smooth lines and the drape of the fabric, making it comfortable and lightweight to wear, perfect for strolling and taking photos in gardens. 🤵Recommended combinations: Top: Stand collar ruqun or wide-sleeved beizi with a long skirt Colors: Morandi colors, such as light bean green, smoky blue, and moon white Pibo: Light gauze pibo for a more dynamic look Shoes: Traditional Song shoes or embroidered shoes Hairstyle: Low buns or simple hairpins with plain ribbons 🧭If you don't have your own Hanfu, you can rent one from a nearby Hanfu shop, where you can also get your makeup done. 👉There are many Hanfu experience shops near the North Palace Gate and East Palace Gate, with rental prices ranging from CNY 80–300 per day and makeup services costing around CNY 50–150. 😍Makeup: Gentle and elegant, with pink or bean paste blush and long willow eyebrows 💄Lip color: Red lips or light bean paste color, low-saturation lipstick is more in line with Song Dynasty aesthetics 🪞Accessories: The Song Dynasty favored simple silver jewelry and white jade hairpins, so you can choose simple hairpins or tassel earrings Recommended photo spots 📍Tower of Buddhist Incense: The iconic building of the Summer Palace, suitable for long shots to show the elegance of Hanfu. Stand on the long steps and pose as if walking slowly, with the wind blowing your sleeves. 📍Kunming Lake: The lake reflects the distant mountains, suitable for capturing the leisurely atmosphere of Song Dynasty scholars. You can hold a folding fan or a scroll to create a poetic picture. 📍Long Corridor: The colorful corridor contrasts with the elegant Hanfu, suitable for side profile silhouettes or leaning against the railing. 📍Marble Boat: The ancient stone boat is suitable for sitting photos, showing the elegant atmosphere of the Jiangnan water town. What other accessories are suitable for matching? 🪭Handheld items: Scrolls, folding fans, oil-paper umbrellas, and sachets to add an ancient charm 💚Wearing Song-style Hanfu is not just a photo experience, but an immersive cultural journey.

Beijing Hanfu Experience | The Poetic Beauty of Lakes and Mountains

Beijing Hanfu Experience | The Poetic Beauty of Lakes and Mountains

⛲️The Summer Palace is full of poetic beauty in summer, and each season has its own characteristics. My favorite season is summer, when everything is in full bloom. Take a boat from the Cixi Waterway all the way to the Summer Palace. Back in the day, Empress Dowager Cixi enjoyed this, so why not take this opportunity to be a Gege or A Ge? 🌍Travel through a thousand years. The pavilions, towers, and landscape paintings of the Summer Palace exude the poetic beauty of Jiangnan gardens. If you want to blend in perfectly with this scenery, Song-style Hanfu is undoubtedly the best choice. 🎭There are rental shops near the Summer Palace's Ruyi Gate and East Palace Gate, with prices ranging from 100 to 1,000. Some include makeup, hair, and photography services. The shops around the West Gate are more affordable. 💄Makeup and styling suggestions Song Dynasty makeup emphasizes natural freshness. You can choose light-colored base makeup, paired with willow eyebrows and small red lips, and then add a Song-style bun (such as a double-ring bun or a hanging bun) to present a gentle and intellectual temperament. 📸 Recommended photo spots in the Summer Palace Long Corridor - The colorful ancient paintings and Hanfu complement each other, showing a scholarly atmosphere. Seventeen-Arch Bridge - The elegance of Song-style Hanfu and the reflection on the lake complement each other, dreamy and poetic. Tower of Buddhist Incense - Overlooking Kunming Lake from a high place, the clothes fluttering, like a lady standing on a tower. Zhichun Pavilion - Leaning on the railing by the water, holding an oil-paper umbrella, full of Jiangnan charm. Wenchang Courtyard - The garden architecture and the elegant temperament of Song-style Hanfu are perfectly integrated. 🕙Best time: 8:00-10:00 am. The sunlight is just right, not too dazzling, and not too bright. 👉Peak hours: Long Corridor and Seventeen-Arch Bridge are crowded. ⚠️Wearing Song pants is more convenient than a horse face skirt, especially when climbing the Tower of Buddhist Incense. 🪭Props: You can bring small props such as folding fans, scrolls, and oil-paper umbrellas to add artistic conception to the photos. 🎫Ticket: 20 ⛲️Hidden spot: If you take a boat, you might as well go to the West Dike, where there are fewer people, and you can enjoy the scenery step by step, as if you are walking in a painting. 👗The gentle elegance of Song-style Hanfu complements the rhythm of the mountains and rivers of the Summer Palace. Next time you come to the Summer Palace, why not put on a Song-style Hanfu and leave the most beautiful memories in this poetic world?
