Description
Mount Emei is located in the southwest of Sichuan Province, in the transition zone from the Sichuan Basin to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. The main peak is Wanfoding, the highest peak, with an altitude of 3099 meters. Due to the height and geographical location of Mount Emei, the scenery from the foot of the mountain to the top is varied and fascinating.

A complete subtropical vegetation system is preserved here, with a forest coverage rate of 87%. There are more than 100 kinds of plants that are only produced in Mount Emei or found in Mount Emei and named after Mount Emei.
