Departing from Home Inn Old Lu Highway Store to the Light and Shadow Appointment at the Sky Mirror

1. Travel Preparation: The Ultimate Guide Before Chasing the Light 1. Transportation Guide - Self-driving: Depart from Home Inn Old Lu Highway Store, navigate to "Mudflats near Shiji Tang Road, Pudong New Area" or "Lingang Seawall Top Road," about a 1-hour drive. It is recommended to leave before 3:30 AM to avoid congestion before sunrise. Temporary roadside parking spaces have been planned nearby, only 30 to 50 meters from the seawall. 2. Photo Spots: - Mudflats along the seawall top road: Look for areas with standing water to capture the mirror effect of the sky meeting the water as the background. - Beside the seawall railing: Stand on the seawall to shoot wide sunrise scenes without needing to go down to the mudflats. 3. Essential Gear List - Clothing: Prefer light blue, off-white, or other light-colored long skirts or tops paired with white bottoms, using lightweight fabrics to enhance the atmosphere; to handle muddy sections, it is recommended to wear shorts underneath to avoid mud on pant legs. - Tools: Fully charged phone (for night lighting and shooting), carry a flashlight; bring a pair of non-slip shoes (mudflats are easy to sink into), wet wipes (no clean water source to rinse feet); you can bring simple accessories like a small silver necklace, which won’t steal the spotlight but adds a delicate touch. - Safety Items: Travel with companions (especially for women), avoid going alone; carry mosquito repellent as there are many mosquitoes on the mudflats early in the morning.
