Where is Mount Emei?

Emei Mountain is located near the mysterious 30 north latitude, in Emei Mountain, Leshan City, Sichuan Province, China. Between 2916'-29 43' north latitude and10310'-103 37' east longitude, it is the residual vein in the south of Qionglai Mountain, rising from Emei Plain and extending from north to south for 23 kilometers.

Yancai has been called "Pu Xian, the eldest son of Buddha, Emei, the leader of the mountain" since ancient times. Emei Mountain is rich in natural heritage and is known as the natural "plant kingdom", "animal paradise" and "geological museum". With profound cultural heritage, it is the holy land of Buddhism in China, known as the "Western Heaven" and the Pu Xian Dojo.

Mount Emei, which stands on the southwest edge of Sichuan Basin, is the general name of Da 'e Mountain, Er 'e Mountain and San 'e Mountain. Li Daoyuan's Notes on Water Classics in the Northern Wei Dynasty recorded that "it is a thousand miles to Chengdu, and the autumn colors are clear. Seeing that the two mountains are relatively similar to Emei, it is called Emei". Due to the height and geographical location of Mount Emei, there are four seasons in one mountain, and the days from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain are different. Mount Emei fondles the stars, and cumulus clouds accumulate rain, which is extremely mysterious.
