    Try standing on the northern side of the shrine where the sun will rise behind the main dome. The light will wash the carved panels softly and you can capture the reflection in the small pool in front. If you want a wider view, walk a short distance to the east terrace; it’s usually less crowded at that hour and gives a good foreground of the stone pillars. Also, the early light makes the gold leaf on the entrance arch glow nicely just keep the exposure a bit lower to avoid blown highlights.
