based on 535 reviewsEmeishan's Golden Peak Temple is surrounded on all sides by places of interest, attractions, and temples of all sizes, shapes, and historicity. To visit here is to truly experience the essence of Emeishan. Golden Peak Temple's golden statue of the Samantabhadra (the Universal Worthy with Four Faces and Ten Great Vows) is a must-see for many tourists to Emeishan. It is also one of the Han ethnicity national key temples of Buddhism. At 3,079 meters above sea level, visitors to the Golden Peak Temple will find their breath taken away by more than just the 48m tall Samantabhadra. While there, devotees may also go to the Huayan Temple to pay respect to the Buddha. From all four sides of the Golden Peak Temple, it is possible to see Emeishan's four wonders - the rising sun, the sea of clouds, the glory of the Buddha, and the holy light.

Reaching the Golden Summit, I bowed in reverence to the golden statue of Samantabhadra, finding peace and tranquility that cleansed my soul. Encountering playful monkeys in the mountains, I found none of the mischievousness often portrayed; they roamed freely in the forest, strolling leisurely like hermits of the mountains, lively and endearing. For the first time, I rode the Golden Summit cable car, capable of holding a hundred people, soaring through the clouds and reaching the heavens in just three minutes, offering a magnificent and novel perspective. At noon, I enjoyed a leisurely lunch at the Golden Summit Food Forest, a feast for the eyes and the palatial atmosphere. This educational trip, combining pilgrimage, nature, and novel experiences, was calming, healing, and left a lasting impression.
