Mount Emei Made Me Never Want to Hike Again!

Exploring Mount Emei with my bestie.
[Mount Emei Dragon Boat Festival Guide]
If you're looking for a serene escape above the clouds beyond the city's hustle, Mount Emei is a must-visit.

As one of China's Four Sacred Buddhist Mountains, Mount Emei offers not only the Golden Summit sunrise and sea of clouds with Buddha's halo but also ancient temple bells and playful macaques. The Golden Summit, located on the main peak at 3,077 meters above sea level, is the heart of Mount Emei's temples and attractions. Its highlights include Huazang Temple (Yongming Huazang Temple) and the 48-meter-tall golden statue of Samantabhadra facing ten directions. It’s a treasure trove blending natural beauty, religious culture, and humanistic charm.
