    Mount Emei is breathtaking! We felt as if we were in a paradise. The whole trip were quite smooth (except for the cable car wait). We took the shuttle bus and cable car, to avoid the long climb hehe. No queue for the bus but long queue for cable car as one of the cable car was under maintenance. We waited for nearly 2 hours to get into the cable car.. but thereafter everything else went perfect. Oh u will need to show yr booking at the counter and get the paper tickets before u can board on the bus. Beware of the Monkeys and take care of your belongings, and don't bring food in plastic bags.

    I saw it when I played the Leshan Giant Buddha. I thought it was nothing. The tickets were a bit expensive, but I finally went in. Overall it is good, the sculpture inside is large in scale, and I have been stationed for a long time before the turntable, six rounds. Several other Buddha statues are also very grand and worth a visit.

    A very worthwhile trip. The boat slowly and steadily went to the side of the Buddha, where we could see the complete Buddha, and then stopped to give us enough time to take pictures. The tour guide, Ms. Wang, made good arrangements, explained things clearly and took good care of the group members.

    I've never seen anything like it! When you are approaching the mountain, you can't see anything really. No snow, I was sad, but as we drove through I started to see the snow. AMAZING. We went up the mountain with a cable car which was ¥188 and then I hiked up the mountain. It was really cold but so beautiful. I’ve have never seen anything like it, the snow was a lot and very cold, but everyone was having fun! the people were playing games making snowman, ducks, taking pictures, photoshoot. I would recommend that if you are going, you wear something white because white looks beautiful in the snow and also remember to wear something with your shoes that would help you not to fall when you’re walking on the snow because it’s very slippery especially if you want to hike it’s very slippery. From the cliff where you can see the clouds we couldn’t even see each other because it was so white and then it started snowing while we were there on the mountain.On our way down we saw lots of monkeys.

    Rich play content: The scenic spot is composed of three parts: the giant panda base, the safari park and the ecological canyon scenic spot. You can see the giant panda in the sloppy state, and you can experience the fun of close contact with wildlife. You can also enjoy the natural landscape such as the canyon waterfall. - Beautiful ecological environment: forest coverage rate of more than 95%, fresh air, high negative oxygen ion content, has the reputation of "the lungs of heaven", is a great place for leisure vacation, summer and cool. - Good animal viewing experience: each panda in the giant panda base is very wide, visitors can see them live close to nature; The wildlife park adopts a free-range model, and the animals live more comfortably, and visitors can observe the natural behavior of the animals more accurately. - The transportation is relatively convenient: about 2 hours from Chengdu by car, you can also take the train to Ya'an Station and take a taxi. For tourists in the surrounding cities, the day trip time is more controllable. Disadvantages - Time tension: The scenic area is large, and the distance between the attractions is far. If you want to finish the main attractions within a day, the time will be tight, the itinerary will be more compact, and the play process will be more rushed. - Limited dining options: There are fewer types of food to choose from in the scenic area, and the quality and taste need to be improved. The price is relatively high. It is recommended that tourists bring some dry food and water. - Some projects experience poor: such as the wild animal feeding project in the safari park, due to the fast feeding speed, tourists may not have time to fully experience, the feeding is over, the experience is not very good. - Parking fees are higher: parking fees are more expensive, which increases the cost of travel for self-driving tourists. Play suggestions - plan routes in advance: plan the routes in advance according to your interests and time, and arrange the time of each attraction reasonably. - Staggered travel: try to avoid peak travel periods such as weekends and holidays, choose weekdays to get a better experience. - Pay attention to weather changes: Bifengxia has a lot of rainy seasons, pay attention to check the weather forecast before traveling, bring rain gear and non-slip shoes.

    The scenery is beautiful with few people. The forest hike feels very similar to Jiuzhaigou, with streams formed by melted glaciers. You can see Gongga Snow Mountain from the cable car up to Camp 4. It is very spectacular. There are many staff members in the scenic area, and the toilets are very clean. It is worthy of being a 5A scenic area. The daily cost of operating in such a dangerous place must be high, so I feel that the ticket and cable car prices are very reasonable. The low altitude is suitable for children to see the snow-capped mountains. As long as you bring enough oxygen cylinders, there is no altitude sickness at all when you reach the highest Camp 4. I didn't want to come here before because of the bad reviews online, but now I am there, it seems that I almost missed it. Now it seems that the trolls online are either stupid or evil.

    The core highlights of Luoji Mountain Scenic Area: 1. Glacier relics wonder: has the world's largest ancient glacier engraving trough (30 meters long, 3 meters deep), such as the crack of the earth, witness the Quaternary glacier movement 3 million years ago. 2. Alpine lake group: 36 ice bucket lakes scattered at an altitude of more than 3,500 meters, black dragon pool, Xiancao lake clear like a mirror, reflect the corner peak edge ridge. 3. Vertical flower kelp: 5-6 month azalea sea blooms, from primrose to century-old azalea, forming a "seven-color flower gallery" three-dimensional landscape. 4. Hot spring waterfall (999 miles): The world's rare wall-mounted hot spring waterfall group, 40 ℃ warm currents fly from the cliffs, clouds and mist around like a fairyland. ★ Geological textbook: complete glacier landform + virgin forest ecology, can be called "concentrated version of the Alps". > Note: The main scenic spot and the ninety-nine miles hot spring are different points, it is recommended to visit each day.
