A
[Direct conclusion] Photography at Longmen Grottoes is generally free, but note: no drones, no touching relics, respect religion and locals.
Key points to keep in mind:
1. Equipment: Most scenic areas (especially ancient sites, grottoes, wetlands) ban drones; violators may lose the device and be fined.
2. Avoid tripods in crowded cores to prevent tripping.
3. Relics and exhibits: No flash or touching on stone carvings, murals, tombs; protection first.
4. Commercial shoots may need a permit.
Note: Carry the original ID and a photo copy saved on your phone before departure.
