As a cosplayer, I must say, I always look for nice places to take awesome cosplay photos, when I arrive in a new place, the first thought in my mind is:”I think it is an awesome place to take cosplay photos! This place just likes where I saw from the comic book.”

We took those picture in Hengdian, a city belongs to Hangzhou province. Hengdian Movie and Television City is a place so-called East Hollywood. Many famous movies and TV series were born here. It has so many different part such as Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival, Hong Kong street, Guangzhou street, and so on.

  1. I like to picture which you took in desert. by the way I think cosplay have to take picture some place, which is more natural or more fashion.

  2. Great pictures and good insight on how to find/search for photo opportunities to fit the characters! It's awesome that you can find places that mimic fictional places (ie from video games/comics/manga) in the real world somewhere without having to completely build a set to take a photo in.
