“Stand on the south side, not under the gate. The whole facade lights up and the crowd disappears into it.”
Excerpted with attribution; full note linked from the creator's channel.
Timing
Arrive 30 minutes before the evening projection for a spot on the south plaza. Daytime visits suit architecture; night visits suit the show.
Nearby
The old city lanes and the Luoyang water banquet restaurants are within a 15-minute walk, which makes an easy evening loop.
Practical notes
- Projection schedule changes seasonally; check the day's board at the gate
- Tripod use is restricted on busy nights
- 09:00–22:00
