A white dress paired with the grasslands and snow mountains can capture a gentle princess look 2. Headscarf + plaid long skirt, perfect for taking photos with lambs, giving off a manor forest vibe! Saw several beauties dressed like this and it looked really good 3. Western spicy girl style, in Merlot color scheme or cowboy fashion, have a western spicy girl feast with your besties Photo spot sharing 1. Heaven Platform If you want to take a photo with the 'little one', it costs 10 R.M.B. The snow mountain on the right side of the corridor is also very photogenic, snap a couple of shots. 2. Sky Grassland There's a large flat grassland here, took advantage of the stop to take photos for five minutes, then it was time to move on to the next stop. One fun thing here is the horse riding experience, very interesting. 3. Nomadic Home The popular bridge is right here, there will be a lot of people in line, if you want to take photos, you'll just have to wait. While waiting, you can change the angle, so you won't be backlit. Then continue walking up a few steps, go to the opposite side of the river, and you can take very photogenic free-spirited water play photos.
