Mt. Emei has significant religious meaning in Buddhism and there are a few dozen Buddhist temples and monasteries dotting the mountain. Today we focus on two famous temples, Baoguo Temple and Wannian Temple. First, start with Baoguo Temple as it is at the foot of mountain Emei with an easy access. It is also the largest temple in Mountain Emei. Wannian Temple is located in the middle way up to the summit. As the oldest temple in the mountain, Wannian Temple is well maintained and a place of serene atmosphere. The architecture is very nice and there is a statue of a golden Buddha on a white marble elephant. In front of this statue people bow, kneel and pray. In addition to those various temples and statues, there are also large rocks, deep valleys, waterfalls, sea cloud, bamboos and verdant forests in the mountain. After finishing sightseeing in the mountain, we will transfer you back to your hotel in Chengdu. Your private three days trip comes to the end.
