Viewpoint
Favor the classic viewpoint looking across the lotus pond in Keyuan toward the Keting pavilion and stone bridge, or overlooking Songshan Lake toward Qifeng Mountain, showing banyan branches and lotus leaves in the foreground, the classical Lingnan grey-brick pavilions and water reflections in the middle-ground, and the lush forested hills fading in the background.
Palette
Green should be the predominant color, especially in the thick banyan canopies, bamboo groves of Keyuan Garden, and rolling lychee-covered hills around Songshan Lake.
