I am in Chengdu, and I want to go to Leshan Emei for two days on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year. Should I stay in Leshan or Emei at night? Where will it be convenient and cheap to live?

If you want to visit Leshan Giant Buddha and Emei Mountain, I suggest you stay in Leshan, because there are many hotels and homestays in the center of Leshan, and the prices are more affordable than those near Emei Mountain. Moreover, there are buses from Leshan city center to Leshan Giant Buddha and Emei Mountain, which is more convenient.

If you stay in Leshan, you can choose Leshan city center or the area near Leshan Giant Buddha. Hotels in these areas are relatively cheap, and they are close to scenic spots and convenient to travel. If you want to soak in hot springs, you can choose to stay in a hotel near Emei Mountain, but the price will be higher.

As for the tourist routes, I suggest you rent a car in the center of Leshan or take a bus to Leshan Giant Buddha and Emei Mountain. In Leshan Giant Buddha, you can visit Leshan Giant Buddha, Dragon Shrines and other scenic spots. You can choose to go to Emei Mountain by bus or taxi, or you can choose to rent a car and drive in Leshan city center. In Emei Mountain, you can visit Jinding, Pu Xian Tower, Sea of Clouds, Sunrise and other scenic spots.

Generally speaking, Leshan and Emei Mountain are very good places, with convenient accommodation and tourist routes and relatively affordable prices, which are worth visiting.
