The sunlight sprinkles on the surface of the lake in the early morning. The golden light pierces through the stone arch bridge hole. The whole scene seems to be a fairyland.
The best shooting location for this scenery is Moon Bridge in Breeze-ruffled Lotus at Quyuan Garden (known as one of "Ten Views of the West Lake" in Hangzhou). The best shooting time is around 5 am in May.
