What to expect
This day tour takes you up the sacred mountain Mount Emei, which is one of the biggest destinations for cultural and religious enlightenment in the area outside of Chengdu. Upon arrival at the mountain, you’ll be able to take some lunch before you proceed to explore some of its famous sites. Wannian Temple has a scenic area that you’ll be able to explore. Walk through the paths and grounds and breathe in the serenity that the area possesses. From the bright open grounds, you will go underground when you visit the Bailong Cave Temple. Amidst all the stalactites and the crevices, the temple sits under a low rock ceiling as its figures of Buddha sit resolutely in the dim glow. This trip is then followed by a trip to Qinying Pavilion, which is nestled deep in the woods. It stands elevated above a bubbling stream, with a stone bridge nearby, and has the appearance of that picture-perfect fantasy setting. Make sure you get lovely photos here before you descend the mountain and head back to Chengdu.
Reviews
This is a poorly planned tour. For an expensive tour, the did not anticipate the rush hour at the ticketing areas. From the start they are saying we will not make it to the top, which is the main attraction. At every phase, they keep discouraging us to not push thru. If they knew this they should have started the tour earlier like 5AM and not 7:30 AM. We weren’t even able to ride the cable car. To be fair to their customers who ended up not getting the full package, they should at least refund part of the fee. The problem is worsened further since they inserted part of the tour from the other day (which was cancelled due to weather conditions) to this tour, resulting in lack of time for everything. We feel this is a sham and should at least be planned better.
Thank you for choosing Klook and for taking the time to leave us a review. We're sorry to hear that the tour arrangement didn't meet your expectation. We value your feedback and surely will report to the merchant for further improvements. We appreciate your kind understanding and cooperation. Thank you!
