One of the eight monasteries in Mount Emei, the legendary place where special Bodhisattvas wash images. If we climbed up from the foot of the mountain, it would be more than half, but there was still a very difficult Lianwang slope behind. So if you are not physically strong or have enough time, you can stay in the elephant pool. You can also eat fasting meals, listen to monks chanting sutras and purify your mind. At an altitude of more than 2,000 meters, it is far from any place that can be opened to traffic. It is impossible to build such a large monastery without admiring our old ancestors. The monks practicing here are also isolated from the world. It's too inconvenient to go to the next mountain.

    The Washing Pool is one of the eight temples in Mount Emei. It is legendary that the Chinese Shubodhisattva washes the elephant. If you climb up from the foot of the mountain, it will be more than halfway there, but there is still a difficult looking slope behind. So if you are not physically able or have enough time, you can stay in the wash elephant pool, you can also eat fast food, listen to the monks chanting, purify the soul.

    The wash Xiangchi is the best place to enjoy the moon in Mount Emei. Li Bai saw the moon in Mount Emei and left behind the "Mount Emei moon half round autumn, shadow into the Pingyi River water flow. At night, Qingxi to the Three Gorges, Sijun did not see the ancient sentence of Zhangzhou". Although I was staying next to this, I didn't see the moon, not time.

    In the eyes of ordinary tourists, the wash elephant pool is not a popular attraction on Mount Emei, but her unique place is the excellent moon viewing resort of Mount Emei, and the "night moon of the elephant pool" is one of the famous ten scenes of Emei. The washing elephant pool is in the high mountainous area of Mount Emei, at an altitude of 2070 meters, surrounded by white clouds, ancient trees, and the bright moon is the most beautiful with the surrounding mountains and trees, and the golden roof does not have these. If you are with the group, you will not stay in the wash elephant pool. You will take the car directly to Leidongping. There is no car to Leidongping. You can only walk. The snow here is very thick in winter and the road is not easy to walk. It is recommended to take the car up the mountain. If you hike the whole journey, it will be very mountain early in the morning, and it will be dark when you go to the wash elephant pool. You can stay in the temple. The room types are varied. You usually have a place. If the time is still early, consider walking to Leidongping. Leidongping is about 7.5 kilometers away from the wash elephant pool. Various temples or farmhouses offer more accommodation, but the winding and winding mountain road is a physical test. Hiking must pay attention to gradual, do not walk quickly at a time, quickly consume your energy, bring enough water, although there are also supply stations along the way, but the more expensive the up. Although the hiking road is relatively cold, and there is no scenery at all, but there are road signs along the road, follow the repaired road, do not take the trail. In winter, you must tie snow nails on your feet, 10 yuan a piece, there is a non-slip effect.

    Washing Xiangchi, located in the high mountainous area of Mount Emei, the world's cultural and natural heritage, at an altitude of 2070 meters, surrounded by white clouds and towering ancient trees. If the Qingqiulang moon is shining, everything is quiet, the light is infinite, looking up at the stars, floating in the immortals. "Xiangchi Night Moon" is the famous scenery here. Wash the elephant pool, into the night, the moon is empty, the moonlight reflects into the pool, the water and the sky are the same, the scenery is beautiful

    It takes four hours to go back and forth from Leidongping to the elephant wash pool. If you live in Leidongping, you can get back before 7 o'clock at noon. There are only some small shops on the way. There are no other scenic spots. There are also people living in the elephant wash pool who are suitable for backpack climbing all the way. It's very cheap. The elephant wash pool is a good place to see the sunrise and the moon.
