Mt.Emei Trip
Today' highlight was to visit Emei Shan ( Mt. Emei ). From our hotel - Huasheng Hotel in Emeishan City to the new entrance to Mt. Emei is about 30Km. We started from our hotel in Mount Emei at 8:30. So we soon arrived at the main gate to Mt. Mount. Three years before I had visited Mt. Emei. But that time I hadn't got to the top of the mountain. We only had visited Wannian Temple located halfway up the mountain. In the temple stands a huge exquisite copper statue of Sarnantabhadra built in the Song Dynasty. Last time we had climbed up the mountain through its old gate. Now this time we entered the famous buddhist mountain through its gorgeous new gate. We first changed for a 22-seat smaller coach and drove about one and half hours along the mountain road from the new gate to the cable car station. From the cable car station on the top, we walked about 10 minutes we got to the golden summit - the top of Mt. Emei.
