Things to do in Leshan

The drive from Huangwan Leidongping took nearly two hours, navigating winding mountain roads. I suffered from motion sickness and altitude sickness, and my head throbbed terribly. There's even a KFC at the Golden Summit. I stayed overnight there, but missed the sunrise the next day – pure luck!

The mountain is a Buddha, and the Buddha is a mountain. Three rivers surge forth, and the ancient Buddha sits serenely on the cliff face, carved over ninety years, silently watching over Jiaozhou's thousand-year history. Walking slowly down the winding plank road, looking up, one truly feels this profound compassion and awe. The river's roar never ceases, time passes silently; may this journey bring peace and tranquility.

We reached the peak a day before the first snow. We may missed the snowing experience but we felt great coz we reached despite rains and wet. We survived through the cold weather.

The cruise is a easier access for closest view of giant Buddha with a stiff hike up and down.

Wanfu Cave is definitely worth a visit! The cave is incredibly cool and refreshing, a natural air conditioner. The stalactites and stalagmites are in all sorts of shapes and sizes, and the lighting creates a wonderful atmosphere. The walkways are well-maintained, making it easy for both the elderly and children to explore. It's a great place to escape the summer heat and relax; I highly recommend it!

Great! Fun and delicious food! Long live Mount Emei! The cable car staff were attentive and helpful. The mountain was completely shrouded in fog, making it impossible to see the sunrise. It was quite nice though, as the sun didn't come out until noon. I saw the sun and each individual sun.

I've visited Mount Emei three times, and each time the scenery has been unforgettable. Mount Emei holds special significance for me. This time, I stayed at Wannian Temple, a very peaceful temple with a wonderful atmosphere. I love the scenery and sea of ​​clouds at Mount Emei.

A light drizzle shrouded Mount Emei, with white mist drifting through the mountains, creating a scene of ethereal beauty. Ancient trees and babbling brooks added to the serene tranquility amidst the rain. Winding stone steps disappeared into the sea of ​​clouds, and the distant sound of temple bells echoed softly in the mist. Though the grandeur of a clear sky was absent, the misty, Zen-like atmosphere offered a unique and serene charm to Mount Emei.

"Jiazhou has many ancient towns, and Suji stands out among them." Suji Ancient Town has fertile land, convenient water and land transportation, and is a gathering place for merchants. It was an important water and land port in Leshan during the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and also a must-pass place for pilgrims and lay Buddhists to worship Mount Emei.

I had long heard that Jinkou Grand Canyon was one of "China's Top Ten Most Beautiful Canyons," and after visiting it myself, I understood that this praise was well-deserved. Standing on the riverside boardwalk, the surging waves of the Dadu River roared below, the sound of the waves crashing against the rocks deafening. Looking up, the cliffs on both sides were as steep as if carved by a knife and axe, with a vertical drop of over a thousand meters. The reddish-brown rock layers intertwined with the tenacious green vegetation growing in the crevices, creating a magnificent and awe-inspiring landscape. The viewing platforms along the way are excellent photo spots. No need for elaborate composition; every snapshot is a masterpiece worthy of being shared on social media. Near the Railway Corps Museum, the Chengdu-Kunming Railway relics embedded in the cliff face are particularly moving. The rusty rails and the remnants of tunnels cutting through the mountains silently tell the story of the builders' arduous journey of overcoming obstacles and constructing bridges, adding a profound cultural dimension to this natural wonder. The scenic area wasn't too crowded, making for a pleasant and relaxing visit without the hassle of crowds. The only thing to note is that some sections have steep steps, so comfortable walking shoes are recommended. Visitors with elderly people or children should slow down. Whether you're a hiking enthusiast who prefers natural scenery or a history buff, you'll find something to enjoy here. Highly recommended!
