Since there are a lot of space, you can just stand anywhere apart from the middle of the path to the entrance gate, of course, to see the performance. Always amazed by the synchronisation showed by the soldiers.

If you are patient enough to wait until the new guards are stationed in position, you can take picture with them. They will be still no matter what weird position you are doing in front of them. Hahaha.
