    "Ctrip is convenient and fast to buy tickets. The staff service attitude is very good. After arriving at the station, directly swipe the ID card to take the car to Leidongping. It takes 2 hours to walk for a while. Take the ropeway to Jinding to see the Buddha statue inside Puxian. It is very solemn. The original road returns to Leidongping and takes the car to Wuxiangang. To see the monkey, you have to walk 5-6 kilometers of mountain road, and there is a line of sky and other attractions on the way. Eating is not expensive and will come again."
    Emeishan.Qingyin Pavilion-Wannian Temple
    >100km from Zhaotong
    Highlights: Mount Emei is one of the four famous mountains of Chinese Buddhism, and it is also the temple of Samantabhadra Bodhisattva. There are numerous Buddhist monasteries in the mountains that combine to give this place a holy and serene atmosphere. The scenery in the mountains are beautiful. The four seasons each have their own characteristics. If you are lucky, you can see the sunrise and sea of clouds. Do note that the monkeys in Mount Emei are notoriously naughty. They are not afraid of people, and even take the initiative to ask tourists for food.

    "Traveling with my family, so I didn't choose to climb the mountain, but chose to take a cruise. Tea, drinks, and snacks are all available on the boat. The viewing angle is also very good, and the time to take pictures and watch is given on the front. The river breeze is slowly, the weather is sunny, and the family sits around and enjoys tea. Very pleasant journey!"
    Leshan.Leshan Giant Buddha
    >100km from Zhaotong
    Highlights: The Leshan Giant Buddha is located on a rock wall of the Lingyun Mountain at the junction of Leshan's Min River, Qingyi River, and Dadu River in Sichuan. It is a sacred place for Buddhist and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Leshan Giant Buddha depicts a seated image of Maitreya and it is an exquisite piece of cliff-carving work from the Tang Dynasty. The colossal statue is about 70 metres high and over 1,300-years-old, making it the largest stone Buddha in the world, and by far the tallest pre-modern statue. It took an astonishing three generations of craftmen and 90 years to complete. When viewing the tall and majestic Giant Buddha, one cannot help but marvel at the wisdom of the ancients. In the absence of modern large-scale tools, they were still able to leave such a legacy.
