Weekend escape plan from the city
Go to Mount Emei with sisters to see the snow and enjoy the hot springs♨️

Mount Emei in winter is really too beautiful!
After the heavy snow, the mountains are majestic, and the ice and snow have been cleansing through tens of millions of years of time sculpting
Golden Summit sunrise, Buddha's light sea of clouds, rime on the mountaintop
The snow scenes that come into view are just too beautiful
Sisters who want to see the Golden Summit sunrise need at least two days of travel time
This time, my sisters and I booked a hot spring hotel at the foot of Mount Emei scenic area
The environment is elegant, the air is fresh, far from the hustle and bustle of the city
Here you can feel the slow pace of life
The Lingxiu hot spring in the hotel is one of the largest outdoor radon hot spring baths in the southwest region, with water sourced from 3000 meters underground
The hot spring also holds water fun sports meetings every week
It's very suitable for a family of three with children to come and play
This December, Lingxiu hot spring has been upgraded again, creating the first Tang Dynasty-themed hot spring bath in Mount Emei, which is irresistible!
I heard that there are also NPCs in ancient costumes for interaction
(However, it's only available on Saturdays)

Mount Emei Winter Travel Guide
For people in Sichuan, seeing snow🌨️ is an obsession. When winter comes, if we can't make it to Harbin, let's go to Mount Emei to enjoy the snow and soak in the hot springs♨️ instead.
I've summarized a guide to snow viewing on Mount Emei, and it's super beautiful and awesome!

🎫Ticket: High season 160 yuan, low season 110 yuan, tickets are valid for 48H
🚌Bus (Tourist Center-Leidongping): Full mountain section 90 yuan, half mountain section 40 yuan

❄️In winter, there is often heavy fog in the morning, but if you're lucky, you can see a sea of clouds in the afternoon, and the scenery is super beautiful.
Since you're here, how can you not experience the hot springs♨️? We often stay at the Emei Mountain Hot Springs Hotel, which is located in the Hot Springs Happy Valley area, and it's also very close to the high-speed train station🚄. They have a lot of themed rooms, whether you're a couple or a family traveling, you can find the right room.
The most important thing is their hot springs, the natural radon hot springs♨️ are really super comfortable, and the environment is great! The experience is excellent!
It is the first Tang-style themed hot spring, with many themed hot springs to choose from, and the water is clear. Both adults and children can enjoy a soak, and it feels really good.
Soaking in the hot springs in winter is really delightful, and afterwards, you can also go with friends to check out the various delicacies of Mount Emei, such as bobo chicken, qiaojiu beef, tofu pudding, and it's really too enjoyable to eat.
Bite-Sized Adventures
A memorable performance not to be missed when visiting Mount Emei!
Visiting Mount Emei is not just about climbing to the Golden Summit to see the Great Buddha!
1️⃣ Be sure to watch a stunning and grand performance and stroll through the village fair to get a feel for the local culture.
Here you can see a portrayal of the historical life of the older generation.
Not only are historical buildings restored, but there are also wonderful performances such as Yangge dance and acrobatics.
After visiting the fair, when it's time, you can go watch 'Only in Emei'.
This performance is so unforgettable.
The visual effects are also exceptional, as if you are right there.
The plot is tight and very easy for people to understand what is being told.
The story also reflects problems that society still faces today.
There is such an old village at the foot of Mount Emei,
where many elderly people and 'porters' are left behind.
Every tile and turn on Mount Emei was carried up by them.
And the young people of the village have all gone to other places to make money.
Only the old, the weak, women, and children are left in the village, with no one to rely on, and in their later years, they cannot enjoy the company of their children and grandchildren.
And the young people in other places are also under the pressure of real life,
struggling for their mortgage and car loans.
Reality does not allow them to relax for a moment, forcing them to move forward.
Everyone is a 'porter' of life,
carrying the burden of mortgages and car loans, carrying their own life's journey.
But on this rugged and bumpy mountain road, don't forget your original intention, and visit the elderly more often.
The clouds above Mount Emei have witnessed the changes of history.
This sea of clouds has always been floating above the Golden Summit of Mount Emei,
like a dream, and like a fairy.
A thousand years, two thousand years, three thousand years, above it is the sunlight, below it is the splendid world.
This sea of clouds has seen the poet Li Bai at the Wannian Temple,
seen the monk Guangwu at the Zhongfeng Temple,
seen a young girl who climbed to the top of the mountain intending to end her life,
and also seen a porter who is striving to climb.
It has seen the sufferings of the world, and also the joys of the world. Of course, it has also seen you at this moment.

Emei Mountain travel guide, nanny-level guide for Emei Mountain travel📍
We arrived at Emei Mountain on the first day, stayed near Baoguo Temple station, strolled around, ate something, soaked in a hot spring (Lingxiu Hot Spring, the environment is quite good, both indoor and outdoor), went out for some late-night snacks and then went back to the hotel to sleep.
The second day, we got up at 6:10 in the morning to pack up, wash and make up, left at 6.45 to catch the earliest 7 o'clock bus to Leidongping. When we got there, many people were already lining up, so if you want to go up the mountain early, you must leave early.
After going down the mountain, we found a Niu Hua hot pot restaurant, paired with Emei Snow, a must-drink in Emei, lychee flavored, awesome👍
💙Travel guide
👉Baoguo Temple Station—Leidongping 07:00～09:00 About two hours by car
👉Walk 1.5 kilometers from Leidongping, about half an hour, to the cable car station to the Golden Summit
👉The cable car takes 100 people at a time, maybe because we went early, there was no queue, the cable car is very fast, about 5 minutes
👉After getting off the cable car, walk for about 15 minutes to reach the Golden Summit
When you reach the entrance of the Golden Summit Hotel, there will be a fork in the road. I went up from the left and then circled around the Golden Summit. There are very few people on the left and it's very photogenic. Most of my photos were taken here.
👉We wanted to see the scenery when we went down the mountain, so we chose to walk, enjoying the beautiful scenery along the way, taking photos, playing in the snow❄️ It takes about 2 hours from the Golden Summit to Leidongping (if you choose to walk down the mountain, be sure to pay attention to the time, the last bus down the mountain is at 18:00, be sure to manage your time well)
⚠️If you want to see the sunrise, it's best to stay in Leidongping or directly on the mountain top.
❤️Things to bring
✅After snowing, waterproof shoe covers and ice claws are too important, you must buy them, you can buy them at the foot of the mountain, ice claws are 10 yuan, waterproof shoe covers are 20 yuan, it's more expensive to buy on the mountain
✅Mask (required to wear a mask on the bus, not required after getting off), sunglasses (to prevent snow glare, also looks good in photos), gloves (must wear gloves, otherwise your hands will freeze), hat (the wind is strong, wear a hat to prevent your head from being blown and hurt, it's best to cover your ears, I wore a beret, my ears were too cold in the windy places)
✅Outfit: I wore a thermal top➕knitted base shirt➕fur coat, pants were thermal pants➕fleece slit pants, shoes were snow boots with waterproof shoe covers, I wasn't cold at all during the whole journey, even sweated
Cost💰
Scenic area ticket: 110/person
Sightseeing bus: 90/person
Upward cable car: 30/person
Downward cable car: 20/person
I went there on January 6, 2023. There was a discount for off-season tickets.
Warm reminder⚠️Be sure to check the weather forecast before you go, choose to go on a sunny day, sunrise, sea of clouds, blue sky, white snow, it's really photogenic, every shot is a wallpaper.
❄️Our way of playing is relatively relaxed, staying at the foot of the mountain to soak in the hot spring, eating some snacks, going up the mountain by cable car the next day, walking down the mountain, seeing the same beautiful scenery, very relaxed
