Emei Shan

Emei Shan (Mount Emei) is one of the four scared mountains of Chinese Buddhism. At one time the mountain was home to over 100 temples and whilst many are no longer in tact, this should not discourage visitors in any way. The natural scenery is prolific and the culture, complete with temples if evident.

Emei Shan is 130 kilometres from Chengdu in Leshan County and should without doubt be combined with a visit to the Giant Buddha. Accommodation is provided at both the peak and base of Mt Emei. The four key scenic sites are Baoguo Temple, Qingyin Pavilion, Wannian Temple, and Golden Summit.
