Mount Emei is about 3000 metres high. It doesn't feel difficult to walk up to the top of the mountains as you are able to take tour bus and cable car to mid-way. You do not have to walk all the way. The steps along the path are very well constructed and easy to walk. The golden buddha at the peak is magnificent! I suggest visitors to cater a full day to cover the whole place and spend some time worshipping in the temples. There are no proper restaurants selling food. Lunch can only male do with cup instant noodle sold by stall vendors.
