From the Golden Summit to the Stone Lions

Standing on the Golden Summit, you feel as if you have entered a sacred Buddhist land. The sea of clouds rolls beneath your feet, floating lightly like cotton, sometimes like a turbulent sea, sometimes like a tranquil white lake, contrasting with the blue sky to create an ethereal, dreamlike atmosphere. As the sun shines down, the statue of Samantabhadra Bodhisattva glows with golden light, solemn and kind, inspiring awe and reverence. The stone lions at the foot of the mountain quietly guard this Buddhist holy land. Sitting or lying, they come in various shapes and sizes. Despite being weathered by the elements, they remain majestic. The textures and carvings on the stone lions tell of the vicissitudes of time and the accumulation of history, as if they are silent witnesses to the ancient culture of Mount Emei.
