Viewpoint
Favor the classic viewpoint looking across the calm waters of the river confluence toward the willow-lined embankments and bridges, or looking across the plaza toward the Han-style Hall of Characters in Xu Shen Cultural Park with the Kaiyuan Pagoda rising in the distance, showing weeping willow fronds in the foreground, the architectural monuments in the middle-ground, and the soft Central Plains horizon fading in the background.
Palette
Green should be the predominant color, especially in the thick weeping willows along the Sha and Li rivers, park gardens around Xu Shen Cultural Park, and lotus ponds.
