01 The tea party in the clouds comes from

the moisture of the snow buds of Emei A few days ago, a friend in Emei said that the rhododendrons on the mountain are blooming, the fragrance of snow buds is strong, and the flowing clouds on the golden top are leisurely...... Aren't you coming to Emei yet? Barbecue and bowl chicken are mesmerizing, playing the piano frog chirping day and night, and if you don't come to your old arms and legs, you will have to take the slider up the mountain......

As a long-time resident of the city, where can I hear this?

Drive early the next morning, and during special periods, hotels on the Golden Dome are also easy to book. I parked the car at the bottom of the mountain and couldn't wait to take the ropeway up the mountain.

It's sunny under the mountain, it's raining on the mountain, it's a slightly cold May, but I was amazed by a few tea girls in red shawls - excellent luck, The "Prajna Tea Party" of Emei Xueya is being held on the mountain.

A snow bud gently blown green by the spring breeze was handed over, as if the remaining snow had just cleared, and the fragrance of life was sprouting in the joy of stretching life , chestnut fragrance, and light grass leaf fragrance.

Listening lightly and slowly, the bell of the Golden Peak Woyun Zen Monastery vaguely came from the clouds, and for the first time, I truly experienced the realm of "one mountain, one tea, one Zen tea".

As we all know, the Emei Mountains, located near 30° north latitude, are the world's golden tea-producing areas. The tea girl whispered: The snow buds are all produced in the alpine tea garden at an altitude of 1200 meters to 1500 meters above sea level in Mount Emei, and the raw materials were picked before the Ming Dynasty, with green tea, flower tea, black tea and other hot-selling series of teas, and there is the only "blessing Zen tea" that inherits the auspiciousness of Buddhism in the four famous Buddhist mountains in China, carrying the rich cultural heritage and natural temperament of Mount Emei.

Away from the hustle and bustle, like a snow elf that does not touch the fireworks of the world, fresh and elegant.

At that time, the Zen tea ceremony tasted like prajna today.

The rarer it is, the more precious it is.

02 Buddha Kingdom Immortal Mountain climbs the Golden Peak again to pick up the stars

and moon After checking in at the Golden Dome Hotel, it is drizzling and the fog is rising outside the window.

I didn't expect to see the true body of Jinding and Puxian, but I finally came, so I still had to go for a religious walk.

After resting for a while, I saw that the sky was actually starting to clear, so I took my friends to climb the Golden Peak.

Walking through the Huazang world and climbing the steps, behind the two rows of six-tusked elephant kings of different shapes stand majestically, staring at the world with compassion.I couldn't help but put my hands together and silently wished: Guotai and the people's safety, smooth weather and rain, prosperity of livestock, abundant harvests, four peaces, safety and health, and stock recovery...... (Bodhisattva, please have mercy, and don't think I'm greedy, I'm also worried about the world, and ordinary people like me will inevitably have to carry some private goods)

It is estimated that Puxian heard my heart, and after a few gusts of wind, she really revealed her true body. I quickly bowed ...... again

Walking all the way to Woyun Zen Monastery, I have begun to admire the famous masters - the flowing clouds around come quickly, walk quickly, choose a corner independently, overlook the vast sea of clouds, and look up at the 48-meter-high four-sided and ten-sided statue of the universal sages, and my heart will naturally calm down.

No wonder so many people come to this "holy place of blessing closest to heaven" every year to feel the auspicious light between the clouds and water.

It was said that we could also go to the morning class on the day, so we returned to the hotel, had a full meal in the food forest on the side and went to bed early, thinking with great interest that we would get up at 5 o'clock the next day to watch the sunrise and listen to the morning class.

I didn't have a dream all night......

03 The scenery of the sea of flowers in the mountains is always inaccessible and in an

environment full of negative oxygen ions, and you can get up early, but the sunrise has passed.

With the permeating fairy mist, Boss Mei and I went out to the green mountains and went straight to the top of the Ten Thousand Buddhas. The trail is 3 kilometers, we stop and go, panting but listening to the wind chimes crisply and not uncomfortable. The sea of large-leaved wild rhododendrons along the way will bring huge surprises from time to time, layer upon layer covering the entire mountain, in the sea of flowers, incomparably magnificent.

The Wanfo Peak is the highest peak of Mount Emei, with an altitude of 3099 meters, standing majestically on the top of the "Great Bright Mountain", with lush vegetation, towering ancient trees, wild vines surrounding trees, and many birds and beasts. The original landscape is well preserved.

The Ten Thousand Buddha Pavilion is 21 meters high, majestic and solemn, with both the strictness of the temple and the beauty of the landscape, giving people a simple, novel and friendly look.

The Ten Thousand Buddha Pavilion rings the bell at 8:00 a.m. every morning to pray for blessings, according to Buddhist tradition, the temple master rings the bell 108 times, which means to symbolize the reincarnation of the year, The sky is long, praying for the peace of the country and the people, and the happiness of the world.

After obtaining the master's consent, we also went to ring the bell three times, silently reciting a wish each time, which is really beautiful - standing on the top of Mount Emei, facing the universal sages in all directions, knocking on the door of the blissful world with the bell, conveying good wishes, praying for lifelong happiness, and also being happy for myself to have completed the feat of going from the Golden Peak to the Top of Ten Thousand Buddhas.

By the way, the traditional folk customs of the Sichuan-Chongqing region, the Emei Mountain Chaoshan Meeting, which was popular in the Qing Dynasty and circulated in the two places, is about to enter its climax during the Dragon Boat Festival.

To be honest, when you arrive at Mount Emei, you should go to the Ten Thousand Buddha Peak.

04 Under the clouds took me back to my childhood

After going down the mountain, I went straight to Gaohe Village.

I have been to Mount Emei many, many times, and another highlight of this trip must be "Only Mount Emei", which I missed several times.

As Wang Chaoge, it is the first presentation of the new masterpiece of the "Only" series after the "Impression" series and the "See You Again" series, this sitcom with rave reviews on the Internet is actually divided into three parts: 210 minutes long, including 90 minutes of "Above the Clouds (Heaven)", 30 minutes of "In the Clouds (Dream World)", and 90 minutes of "Under the Clouds (World)", including 17 courtyard dramas, 2 square dramas, and 75 scattered dramas.

The biggest highlight of the play is that it retains some of the villages and houses of the aborigines under Mount Emei, organically integrates the theater with the surrounding ecological villages, and creates a marching viewing mode from indoor to outdoor.

"In the Clouds" has 30 theater performance points, creating a fairyland-like dream realm between the old villages and theaters. The most attractive foothill landscaping project is paved with white gravel and covered with fog forest, which will use 36 artificial foothills made of black basalt blocks with a large area of square floor paved with white gravel, and build 23 roofs to create a dreamlike Emei fairy world in the ethereal and colorful "fog forest" effect.

The 35-acre artistic utilization area of the old village site implements artistic improvement on the basis of the reinforcement, repair and transformation of about 48 farmhouses and surrounding landscapes in the original ecological village, creating China's only original ecological real-life village immersion drama, so that the artistic area of the old village site is not only the end of the performance of the "above the cloud" theater, but also a wonderful performance of "under the cloud" that can be independently written.

After entering the kindergarten, the immersive 80s nostalgia wrapped me in exploring forward, skipping rope, kicking shuttlecocks, dancing ribbons, rolling hoops, cutting window grilles, writing couplets, picking up relatives, and grabbing candy...... Dozens of mainstream entertainment projects in the 80s, accompanied by young men in good shirts riding bicycles and selling "sorbets" along the street, dragged me into the memories of the past.

05 "Only Mount Emei" is a

big drama of regaining one's own life "Only Mount Emei" drama fantasy city, through the perspective of the sea of clouds, creates the overlap of different times and spaces, no matter what era the people are, they all meet on the huge "swastika" character, and countless lives are endlessly rotated under the blessing and blessing of the Buddha. The six spaces of the sea of clouds, the ups and downs of the golden dome, the years of chasing dreams, the clouds and smoke of Fenggu, the thousand-year-old husband, and the nostalgia of the hometown, use different interpretations and story content to show the Buddhist culture and characters of Mount Emei for thousands of years in front of the world.

I watched the play while reminiscing about my life and life. As far as the eye can see, clouds and mist are swirling, as if shuttling through a sea of clouds. Monks, officials, girls, poets, they come from different dynasties, wear different types of costumes, do their own thing, or talk or walk or dance, not disturbed by the outside world, this place seems to have become the intersection of different times and spaces throughout the ages, seemingly conflicting but harmonious.

In the first few scenes, I was amazed by the world-class stage design of the play, and as the plot deepens - soft greetings, golden sentences, lines and scenes blended, the world-weariness and cheering up of the plaid girl, and the spirit of carrying the weight of the husband for thousands of years...... It reminds me of the three years of precious time in my life that was sucked away by the epidemic, and I burst into tears unconsciously after 6 transitions.

"Only Mount Emei" is a dramatic fantasy city and an emotional place. It can be said that this "must-see immersive performance in Sichuan" made my anxious heart gradually settle down and explore my heart.

In fact, Wang Chaoge's "Only Mount Emei" did not use any skills, but gently touched the softest place in his heart.

Previously, some people said that it takes 6 days to watch the full drama, which is not an exaggeration!

Similar lives have different choices.

06 On the way back from entering the "metaverse" in advance

, I took the time to go to the digital tour of Emei and the research camp.

I have to say that the smart tourism of Mount Emei has done quite well and entered the "metaverse" in advance. After the visit, I would recommend that you first go to the digital image to travel around Emei, first understand the profound history and culture of Emei, and then go up the mountain to visit, the journey will be more different.

The opening "Listening to Emei" is very moving: the professional team spent dozens of days collecting the sound of wind, rain, flowing water, the sound of frogs playing the piano, the roar of flowing clouds, and the sound of falling snow on Mount Emei...... The unique Emei symphony is assembled, which is extremely beautiful. Then enter the mountain space composed of a screen to watch the ten traditional scenes in the "Eshan Illustrated Commentary" looming on the mountain, each story is 30 seconds. The ten scenic spots of Emei include the Holy Accumulation Evening Bell, Luofeng Qingyun, Lingyan Stacked Green, Shuangqiao Qingyin, Baishui Autumn Breeze, Hongchun Xiaoyu, Daping Jixue, Jiulao Xianfu, Xiangchi Night Moon, and Golden Dome Xiangguang, which will give people a deeper understanding of Mount Emei.

The 5G technology, holographic impact, and other scenes displayed in VR in the exhibition hall are also worth stopping slowly.

I was a little sorry, time was tight, and I hurried back, and the research center could only take a glimpse of it.But next time I plan to take my little 11 to come again, let her participate in a study of Mount Emei to read the mystery of the rich cultural and natural heritage of Mount Emei - to be honest, it is also quite well built: a 3,500-square-meter research building, a total of 6 floors, with 12 research experience areas, namely the theme education building, the double heritage research building, the handicraft practice building, the research management center, the science and technology innovation research building, and the Chinese studies etiquette building......

Hey, the excitement and thickness of Emei are far more than that, "a mountain, a rope, a bed, a play, a cup of tea, a net, a camp, a cultural and creative ", etc." The core industry of "Eight Ones", as well as the high-quality service brand of "Please find me if you have difficulties", 72 hours is not enough.
