Things to do in Ebian

The scenery is beautiful, at an altitude of about 2000 meters. There's a 3-kilometer-long, gently sloping wooden boardwalk with almost no steep inclines, perfect for a leisurely stroll. The still lake reflects the surrounding scenery, and meadows and pastures dot the hillsides with cattle and horses – a truly therapeutic spot for photos. No strenuous hiking is required, making it easy for seniors and children to enjoy. The area boasts a high concentration of negative oxygen ions.

Mount Emei is truly amazing! The joy of hiking must be experienced during the off-season – fewer crowds, beautiful scenery, and a leisurely pace. It was drizzling halfway up the mountain, but when we reached the summit, above the clouds, the sky was clear.

Mali Lengjiu is one of the two scenic spots open in the huge Heizhugou Scenic Area in Ebian County, but it is the most worthwhile alpine meadow beauty. The scenic area is located in a mountainous area at an altitude of about 2,000 meters, covering an area of ​​more than 2,000 acres. It is a natural swamp. Because it is surrounded by high mountains, the middle is flat, the area is wide, and the vision is wide, it enjoys the reputation of "alpine plain". Standing in the center of the meadow and looking around, the mountains are green, the mountains behind are steep and tall, the trees are lush, and the nearly 1,000 acres of flat land in the center make the scene spectacular.

Jinkou Grand Canyon is actually a section of the Dadu River Geopark within the Jinkou River. It features a reservoir and dam, a waterway highway and a suspension bridge, cliffside villages and a railway corps museum. The cliffs on the banks are colorful, and the rushing water below reflects the emerald green. The majestic beauty and grandeur of Jinkou Grand Canyon are truly breathtaking!

There are two cable car lines to the Golden Summit. Line 1 is for standing passengers, with a capacity of 100 people per line. Line 2 is for sitting passengers, with a capacity of 6 people per line. Line 2 only goes up in the morning, not down. It is recommended to take Line 2 to go up the mountain and Line 1 to go down.

Great! Fun and delicious food! Long live Mount Emei! The cable car staff were attentive and helpful. The mountain was completely shrouded in fog, making it impossible to see the sunrise. It was quite nice though, as the sun didn't come out until noon. I saw the sun and each individual sun.

This itinerary is suitable for families with elderly members or children; it's relatively easy, and there are designated rest areas on the mountain. The Leshan Giant Buddha Scenic Area definitely deserves five stars; it's worth visiting countless times.

Transportation from Chengdu to Dujiangyan is very convenient; a 30-minute high-speed train ride costs only 10 yuan. Many people visit Dujiangyan to witness this magnificent water conservancy project firsthand and experience firsthand this millennium-old water engineering marvel. The river flows mightily, and the Fish Mouth and Flying Sand Weir are masterpieces of engineering. It's not just about beautiful scenery, but also about the great wisdom of the ancients. We entered through the main gate, and the entire route is accessible without any uphill climbing, allowing for a leisurely stroll through the scenic area where history and nature blend seamlessly.

Looking for some fresh air this weekend, a friend recommended the front of Qingcheng Mountain. To be honest, I didn't have high expectations beforehand, thinking it would just be a hike and temple visit. But after walking around, I immediately added it to my "must-visit every year" list. Entering through the mountain gate, the first impression was "green." Towering ancient trees lined both sides of the stone path, the air was damp and fragrant with the scent of grass and trees. The path was gently paved, the steps weren't steep, and walking and stopping wasn't tiring at all, especially friendly to someone like me who doesn't exercise regularly. Not far along, I reached Tianshi Cave. The branches of an ancient ginkgo tree shaded most of the courtyard. An old Taoist priest sitting under the tree, drinking tea, nodded to me, and at that moment, I suddenly felt calm. Sitting on the stone steps, listening to the sound of the wind rustling through the pine forest for a while, all the chaotic thoughts in my mind cleared away. Further up to Shangqing Palace, the platform in front overlooks the front of the mountain. Clouds and mist rise from the valleys, making the mountain peaks appear and disappear, truly giving it an ethereal feel. I met a kind Taoist priest who told me a story about Zhang Tianshi and recommended I try the tea brewed with mountain spring water. That warm, welcoming attitude was far more comfortable than the standardized service at any trendy tourist spot. What touched me most about the entire mountain path was its tranquility. The sound of a stream accompanied me all the way, tinkling and melodious, like nature playing white noise. One section of the path was lined with bamboo and ferns, sunlight filtering through the leaves, making me feel as if I had stepped into a movie. On the way down, I took a ferry on Yuecheng Lake. The boatwoman hummed a tune, and the green mountains on both sides slowly receded—the feeling was indescribable. Although the summit was shrouded in fog this time, preventing me from seeing the panoramic view, it's good to leave something to look forward to; it gives me a reason to come back next time. The front of Qingcheng Mountain doesn't try to force you to climb until your legs break, nor does it try to fool you with artificial attractions. It simply offers you a peaceful green space, a cup of tea, and a quiet path. If you want to steal half a day of leisure from the fast pace of life, this is the place to go.
