Contracted Golden Top Sunrise

Sunrise, sea of clouds, Buddha's light, and holy lamp are the four major landscapes of Mount Emei, and most tourists go to these landscapes, and some people go to Buddha. I am naturally the former, and I believe in nature. Wherever the residence of Buddhism and Taoism is a place with excellent scenery, away from the world, concentrating on practice, this is the sincerity of ancient Buddhists and Taoists, what about now? Because science is becoming more and more developed, software and hardware facilities are gradually improving, and the places where Buddhism and Taoism are located are becoming more and more lively.

The

enclosure movement should start from the reform and opening up, some of the government enclosures are used to build houses, some are used to build development zones, of course, Mount Emei, Shaolin Temple, etc. are circled to sell tickets, to put it bluntly, it is business. I have heard that many business-minded contracting temples defraud good men and women of money, so if you see an abbot or abbot driving a BMW and holding an Apple phone, don't make a fuss. The two license plate numbers of a temple in Yibin are very similar, both are auspicious numbers, so it can be confirmed that there are still people in the temple who do not believe in Buddhism.

Seeing the devout good men and women in the contracted temple, I can only feel compassion and speculate on the Buddha's will with the worst mind, which is definitely wrong, but I weakly ask the person who manipulates the Buddha's will: Can the incense money and merit fees you receive be publicized to the good men and women? There is a temple in Zhejiang whose merits and incense are very prosperous, and its leaders publicize their monthly income and expenditure one by one, which is worth 10,000 likes!

Since the management committee contracted the scenery of Mount Emei, the money paid by tourists has been increasing every year. The leaders of the management committee may ask: If you don't have money, do you swim a yarn? I don't charge, what do I use to manage well? I don't charge, what do I use to build roads? These "reasonable" questions test the word "harmony", and without money, you really can't walk on the land of the Republic and watch the sunrise at will. The author hopes that the management committee will also publicize the income and expenditure situation, so that I can see the sunrise and see it clearly.

What are the conditions for seeing the sunrise, the sea of clouds, the holy lamp, and the Buddha's light? One is of course to look at the weather, the second is to look at the time, and the third is to look at the money. If you have time and enough money, the weather is not a problem, if you don't have time and don't have enough money, then it's up to luck.

I went to Mount Emei three times, and the last time I saw the sunrise and the sea of clouds, because the sunrise and the sea of clouds appeared together. Due to time constraints, I did not wait for the holy lamp and Buddha's light. The beauty and spectacle of the golden top sunrise and the sea of clouds have already been written by writers, "Cui Hao's poem is on top", I am not ugly. Words can't express it, photos can't be shown, cameras can't go deep, you can only feel the sunrise and the sea of clouds on the spot.

So, how much does it cost to see such a scene? If you are a poor tourist, the ticket is 160 yuan, you have to start climbing the mountain from 8 o'clock in the morning, if you are physically strong enough, after more than 10 hours of crawling, go to a temple in Taiziping to rest, live downstairs for 60 yuan per person (to endure the sound of wooden boards upstairs), dinner is 20 yuan per person (the vegetarian food tube is full), the next day at 5 o'clock on the Golden Dome, half an hour will arrive, if the character is good, you can see the sunrise and the sea of clouds, and then you will spend more than 10 hours going down the mountain. 240 yuan is enough to watch the sunrise and the sea of clouds.

If you don't have enough energy and want to enjoy it, it will cost you a lot. From Baoguo Temple Tourist Station directly to Leidongping round trip (90 yuan), then take the cable car round trip (120 yuan), stay at the Golden Dome Hotel (from 1280 yuan per night), and the sunrise over the sea of clouds will cost nearly 2,000 yuan. Of course, there are helicopters flying directly up, and there are those who live under the golden dome waiting to watch the sunrise and sunset of the Buddha's light lamp in the sea of clouds, most of whom are rich or powerful.Private cars can only be parked at zero kilometers, but the author found that there were many private cars parked in Leidongping, and he yawned and asked, it turned out that it was the relevant departments that greeted the relevant households, which reflected the importance of the relationship everywhere.
