Recommended scenic spots around Mount Emei

Mount Emei scenic spots include Mount Emei and Khufu Temple.

1, Mount Emei, also known as White Cloud Gorges, is open and clear outside the gorge, steep and cool inside the gorge, and the temperature difference between inside and outside is large, which makes people feel extremely strong. Entering the canyon, looking up, there are steep cliffs on both sides, obliquely inserted into the clouds. Through the sparse vines and branches, the blue sky is exposed. I saw it more than 200 meters high, about 6 meters wide and only 3 meters at its narrowest point. It can only let two people pass sideways. This scene is a scene.

2. Khufu Temple is located under Mount Emei, adjacent to Guobao Temple. It was a small temple in the Jin Dynasty, which was converted into a temple by Zen master Yun 'an in the Tang Dynasty. In the Qing Dynasty, the monk built a statue to suppress the nearby tiger disaster and renamed it "Khufu Temple".

The development of history

It is said that there were Buddhist temples in Han Dynasty, but according to the records of Emei Mountain, there were Buddhist temples in Emei Mountain, which was actually the Heishui Temple built by Seng Zhao in Wei and Jin Dynasties. In the third year of Jin Longan (399), Hui came to Shu with a monk from Lushan Mountain, and built a Fukenji in Shu to worship Bodhisattva Puxian.

According to legend, Mount Emei became the Dojo of Samantabhadra. Tang Xizong plans to build Yongming Huazang Temple and rebuild six temples: Zhongfeng, Zhongxin, Huayan, Wannian, Heishui and Lingyan. Because of the mountain fire, the temple was renamed as Jiyun, Woyun, Guiyun, Blackwater and Baishui, which was suppressed by three clouds and two waters. Later, Heishui Temple was called Emei Ancestral Hall.

In the fifth year of the Northern Song Dynasty (980), the monk Mao Zhen of Baishui Temple rebuilt six temples and cast a bronze statue of Pu Xian, weighing 62 tons, which was dedicated to Baishui Temple (now Wannian Temple).
