Emeishan Mountain, Sichuan
Province, China - Photo Gallery
Emei Shan
(a.k.a. Emeishan, Mt. O-mei or Mt.
Emei), in Sichuan province, is one of the four Buddhist sacred
mountains of China. At 3,099m, Mt. Emei is more than 1,000m higher than the
other three Buddhist sacred mountains. Mt. Emei has been designated a
World Heritage Site thanks to its breathtaking scenery, mysterious natural
wonders, and historical Buddhist sites. The full day's hike to the summit is an
unforgettable experience undertaken by many, but minibuses and cable cars make
faster alternatives for travelers short on time.
