You can also take a taxi to go, it is estimated to be very expensive, 15 or 20, depending on how you bargain, say good and then get on the car, is also a way. Remember to buy a map of the scenic area now, in the car to study the first
3 How long does it take to walk the whole way ----- depends on your speed and the route you choose.
The furthest the walk will take you is from the Temple of Repose to the gate near the Temple of Fuhu, which is a full walk. It's a quicker walk at about 14 hours. Next is to take a bus to Wuxiangang into the mountain, walking to the Golden Peak is faster about 12 hours. The shortest walking distance is to the Wannian Temple into the mountain, walking to the Golden Peak faster about 9 hours.
The above speed and time are not much consideration of the viewing time, pure rush time
So, if you want to enjoy the tour, prepare for two to three days.
Tickets 120 student discount
Excluding the three temple tickets:
Reporting State Monastery tickets: 8 yuan/person
Fuhu Monastery tickets: 6 yuan/person
Wannian Monastery tickets: 10 yuan/person
Personal Opinion: If you're not interested in the study of religious and architectural culture, these temples really aren't much to look at, but they're a great way to see the world. These temples are really nothing to see, Emei Mountain is a good natural scenery, or spend more time hiking to see the scenery, but also save money
Can choose to hike up the mountain, of course, will be very tired ha, be prepared, after all, more than 3,000 meters, there are maps, along the way there is a clear route up the mountain signs, there is the road with the same way to travelers have people along the road, have a problem with the question more than ask, don't worry about going the wrong way. Downhill if the physical strength can not, you can choose to take the cable car from the Golden Peak to Lei Dongping to take the minibus downhill. The whole mountain **** five car parks: the newspaper Temple passenger transport center - five Hsianggang car park - Wannian Temple car park - zero kilometer car park - Leidongping car park The newspaper Temple passenger transport center of the green tourism fleet unified ticketing, rolling class. Every interval of 20 minutes a bus. Tourists can get on and off at any time in the five major car parks throughout the mountain at will.
All in all, if it is not the Golden Week to go, 300 dollars is enough for you to live alone in the mountain air-conditioned standard room to play for two days.
4 down the mountain to the passenger center to take the bus to Chengdu, the car is a lot, at any time, more convenient than the train, 3-4 hours, ranging from 30 40 yuan (different car conditions to the station different). If you are to return to Kunming immediately, take the bus to the north train station, if you still have to play in Chengdu for two days, take the new South Gate Tourist Passenger Transportation Center.
5 Accommodation, Emei mountain has a lot of monasteries and farmhouse, can go to the monastery and farmhouse to live, almost all the large and small monasteries are prepared to have rooms, in addition in the Qingyinge, wash the elephant pool, Leidongping and some other places there are a lot of farmhouse, the Golden Peak also has some guesthouses, so as long as in accordance with the speed of your mileage and calculate your destination, do not believe that those who give you said that there is no lodging on the upward The saying that there is no place to stay up there. Let go of your legs and climb. However, if you want to stay in a monastery, it is best to stay in a larger monastery, those small to only a temple of the monastery's accommodation are very poor, and the toilet is even more miserable. Generally you can choose from the following monasteries: Qingyin Pavilion, Resting Place, Huayan Peak, Wash the Elephant Pond, Golden Peak Wolverine Temple, Xianfeng Temple, Hongchunping. As for Nongjiale, I personally think that the rooms are similar to the better monasteries, and the price is a little bit more expensive, so unless the big monasteries are full, it is still recommended to stay in monasteries and Nongjiale. Monastery and Nongjiale lodging price of a multi-person bed ranging from 10 yuan to 30 yuan, double room a room ranging from 60 yuan to 160 yuan. Price disparity is still quite large, but expensive on so few monasteries, in addition to the gold top lying cloud nunnery, mainly concentrated in the line from the washing of the Elephant Pond through the Hongchunping to the Qingyinge, may be because this is not as good as the Wannian Temple to the washing of the Elephant Pond. The line of monasteries more distance close. Leidongping has a lot of small hotels, good conditions, I spent 60 at the end of June to live in a standard room for two people, very comfortable. Depends on your strength and travel arrangements, in short, Emei Mountain development is quite mature, do not have to worry about sleeping in the wilderness.
6 Precautions:
Clothing generally just take a slightly thicker jacket to prepare for the cold at an altitude of 3,077 meters at the top of the gold, if you do not see the sunrise morning or afternoon to the top of the gold no problem, if you want to see the sunrise, it is very early, and that's above the really very cold. If you do not bring it is okay, to the Leidongping upwards, everywhere is to rent cotton clothes. Emei Mountain often rains, so bring a raincoat or a raincoat is also necessary. Bring a change of underwear is very necessary, because I climbed the mountain climbing bag strap are wet, sweat is a pain in the ass ah!
Shoes, if you have good shoes to wear, in fact, general sneakers or even cloth shoes can, as long as you are not wearing leather shoes to climb the mountain, it is just a different level of comfort, the road is still very good to go.
Drugs, food and drinking water is generally not necessary, really want to bring, climbing easy fatigue, things do not bring too much, bring some chocolate or ten Lee frame is good, light to supplement the energy on the line, along the road to sell the pool or a lot of. You can bring a water bottle for drinking, if you think it's troublesome to bring a water bottle, bring a bottle of good mineral water directly on the bottle, don't throw away the bottle after you finish drinking, and it's useful to go up the mountain. You can find merchants or people water, but the spring and so on do not just pick up to drink ha. Really thirsty panic, nothing more than
spend a little more money, health is the most important
After entering the mountain to buy a walking stick, but do not need to be that kind of very expensive and very beautiful, as long as it can be used, 4 yuan a on can be. It is mainly used to climb the mountain to support and drive away the monkeys. As for whether to bring some food to feed the monkeys, individuals look at the situation, but do not need to bring too much, will be robbed by the monkeys.
If you plan to walk at night, you need to bring a flashlight. However, there is no need to walk at night.
Monkeys are a big part of Emei Mountain's landscape, and generally they won't attack you. When I climbed Emei Mountain, I brushed up against monkeys several times, and they didn't even bother with me. But this is not to say that they will not have any threat to you, so you still need to understand some and monkeys and dealing with the taboo. First of all, bring a walking stick, monkeys are afraid of that thing, if it doesn't mess with you, that's all, if there is a tendency to do so, you can raise the walking stick to scare the monkeys, they will take a few steps back, but don't really hit them. Don't carry food, bottles of water and plastic bags in your hands, the monkeys will come at you and grab them. So it's better to put everything in your backpack and take it out when you need to use it where there are no monkeys. Don't touch the monkeys' head, especially the little ones, otherwise, I don't know, if you are brave enough, try it yourself. If you want to take a picture of the monkeys, it is better to do it in a place with many tourists, or with the management or monks, there have been cases of monkeys grabbing the camera, so it is better to pay attention to the safety. If you want to feed the monkeys, it is best not to take out a little from a bag to feed, so they tend to grab the bag in your hand. So just take a little bit in your hand, if you want to feed it, just give it all to them, and forget about it after feeding it, don't take it inside your backpack or clothes pocket again, so that they can see it, and be careful to shift their attention to your backpack or clothes pocket, they are absolutely capable of tearing it open for you. In addition, the mountain encountered monkeys you can freely feed, but the monkeys located in the ecological monkey area of the Heilongjiang trestle, is not allowed to feed you with their own food, to feed have to buy monkey food.
