It’s enough to go to Mount Emei and read this article, it’s super detailed

First of all, I really feel that I am so lucky to encounter good weather in Mount Emei and see the sea of ​​clouds 😬 I have been paying attention to the weather before setting off, worrying that it will be rainy and foggy. After all, there are not many sunny days in Mount Emei. We took a one-day trip to Mount Emei from Chengdu. I took the high-speed train to Emeishan at around 6:30 (remember to buy the ticket at Emeishan Station, not Emeishan Station 😉) Because it was too early and the subway hadn’t opened yet, I took Didi from the hotel to Chengdu East Station. Worried about traffic jams, I left early. As a result, there was no traffic jam in Chengdu at around 5 o'clock, and we arrived at the high-speed rail station in ten minutes. We chose to enter the station from the north gate of Chengdu East Station (it is said that there are fewer people). If you want to have breakfast, there are several small stalls at the entrance to choose from. After purchasing, go through the security check. Otherwise, there is a lot of food after entering the station, but it is more expensive. Anyway, don’t worry about not having anything to eat! However, you can bring your own water and snacks to fill your stomach on the way up Mount Emei. Things on the mountain are relatively expensive. It was almost eight o'clock when we arrived at Mount Emei. If you have a domestic ID card, you can purchase tickets online in advance and take the sightseeing bus directly to Leidongping after arriving at the station. Friends with overseas documents can only buy tickets offline because they cannot buy tickets online. There is a ticket window at Emeishan Station. As soon as the train arrives, it is best to leave the gate quickly and go to the ticket window to buy tickets, otherwise you will have to queue up when there are too many people. Some of us ran to the toilet first, and then failed to buy tickets immediately. We had to wait in line for about half an hour (it was a Saturday) It is recommended to directly purchase the ticket to Mount Emei for ¥160, the round-trip sightseeing bus from the high-speed rail station to Leidongping for ¥90, and the round-trip cableway from Jieyin Hall to Jinding for ¥120, for a total of ¥370. This way it will be easier and less time-consuming to get to the Golden Summit. After buying the ticket, you can check it at the side and get on the bus. It takes nearly two hours to drive to Leidongping, and you have to get off the bus once to use the toilet. After arriving at Leidongping, there is still a staircase up the mountain. You need to walk up the mountain to the Jieyin Hall, which takes about 20-30 minutes. You may see monkeys during your walk, so be careful. We didn't see them at all when we went up, but we saw two when we came down, but there were staff nearby, so we weren't so worried. Because I saw netizens saying on the Internet that monkeys would snatch things/attack people, I was quite worried. Go up to the Jieyin Hall and follow the signs to take the ropeway. It has two types. One is a circular ropeway that can accommodate six people and has more carriages. One is a reciprocating ropeway that can accommodate a hundred people, but there is only one. You have to wait for it to go down and then come up again, which may be a little slower. We have experienced both ropeways, and both times required queuing for 30-40 minutes. It's not a long time. It takes an hour or two to read what netizens say😱 It takes about 5 minutes to take the ropeway to the Golden Summit. Friends who have time after visiting the Golden Summit can stop by the Ten Thousand Buddhas Summit. It is the highest point of Mount Emei, overlooking the Golden Summit. There is a small path to walk over from the Golden Summit, which is said to take about 40 minutes (we did not walk there again that day), and you have to note that the Ten Thousand Buddhas Summit is closed at two o'clock in the afternoon and no one is allowed to enter. We went down the mountain at around two o'clock in the afternoon. The ropeway still had to wait for more than half an hour. The sightseeing bus was very fast. There was no need to queue and it went down the mountain faster. There was still some time before our return high-speed train, so we took a Didi to eat some local specialties nearby. Because I didn’t want to rush, I canceled my planned trip to Leshan. If you want to arrange a one-day trip to Leshan Giant Buddha in Mount Emei, you can do it, but the itinerary will be more intensive. In addition, the ultraviolet rays on the top of the mountain are really strong, maybe because of the high altitude. I wore a v-neck sweater, but when I came back at night, I found a red V-shaped patch on my chest. It turned out to be sunburn. So remember to wear clothes with higher collars or apply sunscreen #Emeishan #trip #Emeishan云海 #南无Amitabhabhava #金丁 #Where to go in April
