For visitors to Shanghai, a photo with the iconic skyscraper trio —  Shanghai Tower, Shanghai World Financial Center, and Jin Mao Tower — in a single frame is a must-do. Tourists often go to great lengths for the perfect shot: squatting, lying flat, or pressing their phones against the ground.

To help travelers take the perfect photo, the Lujiazui Police Station has teamed up with volunteers from the Lujiazui subdistrict to launch a novel service: a dedicated "photography post" at this popular photo spot.

At designated locations across the area, police officers and volunteers on duty help visitors capture memorable images featuring the trio. In addition, ground markings at each photo point guide tourists to the optimal selfie angle.

In one video posted online, a city management officer is seen teaching visitors how to capture cinematic-looking shots, saying he can "teach everyone in just one minute".

He patiently coaches visitors through the process, repeatedly reminding them of key tips: use the rear camera, switch to the 0.5x ultra-wide mode, and lean slightly backward while standing.

Netizens commented that "Shanghai is so advanced" and "Shanghai really understands what we need."

These carefully selected photo points not only enhance the photo-taking experience but also help reduce disruptions to pedestrians and vehicle traffic caused by people stopping to take pictures.
