Has an important discovery tour on foot Mount Emei
Mount Emei in Sichuan the first mountain, enjoy the "Emei world show" reputation. "World Natural and Cultural Heritage", "the four Buddhist mountains", "China's first national key scenic spots," the title of a series of flash is sufficient to prove that it's Hongbo Fuli.
I was born and raised in Sichuan, like sightseeing travel I always regarded as an important destination for Mount Emei. Junior summer once a few years ago to prepare the past Mount Emei, but because of the rain temporarily canceled. National Day in 2002 after the farewell to their families, back pack, and finally started my charmed the long trip to Mount Emei.
Mount Emei highest peak 3099 meters above sea level, compared to the relative height difference foothills baoguosi more than 2500 meters, in China's traditional mountain is the highest, and two foot mountain Road, according to available data length 60.5 kilometers, respectively, 44 km, very long, climbing Mount Emei for ordinary visitors is a challenge. However, Mount Emei has developed quite mature, and modern means of transport will enable visitors to take it easy on the ground Mount Emei. Nevertheless, I chose the Mount Emei Tour of the whole walk way. The foot, contrary to my own expectations: within one day from baoguosi boarded Jinding. Later, after thinking and analysis, I have an important discovery: the existing data and the actual mileage Mount Emei scenic spots compared to large errors.
October 9 morning, cloudy weather, very suitable for mountain viewing. I left the lodging of the hotel, came to serve the country foot of Mount Emei Temple and to the side to know baoguosi has begun to implement the winter rest system, Kaimennake until 7:30, so not into the temple.
7:00 departure from baoguosi began climbing Mount Emei. About ten minutes walk of the highway, to arrive Fu Husi, into the temple tour, Fu Husi is a nunnery, temples are relatively large, Cuifeng surrounded by, the environment elegant and pleasant scenery. 7:30, starting from the Fu Husi, and soon went to the Mount Emei ticket. After more than 10 minutes before wicket, a shop on the roadside to eat a bowl of noodles and continue to advance along the road through the Chun-yang Palace, Court holy water. From Fu Husi slope above the main hall to Shun Yeung, Chun-yang bring up the rear is mainly downhill, over the holy water onto a road Club, gentle decline. 8:58 to medium-feng Temple junction, turn right there are stairs way to the peak in Temple, did not go. And then forward line near the left side there is a level road, off-road Shun the steps to the road, the first to climb a long slope, and then downhill, 9:18 to Qingyin Ge. Qingyin Ge along the beautiful scenery and shimmering turquoise, is a low mountain Emei representatives from black and white dihydrate wear Gap, will you, The sound of thunder, is quite distinctive.
9:32 departure from the Qing Yinge. There are two mountain Qingyin Ge to the Golden Summit Road, a temple by thousands of years, and the other one by the Hong Chunping, Xianfeng Temple, which is a long journey but the scenery better. I choose to The Temple Jindao years along the way slope, through Bai Longdong, 10:04 years to reach Temple. Years Temple has a long history, which is a non-beam brick palace more than 400 years ago, construction, non-beam brick temple dedicated to riding like a bronze statue of Samantabhadra is passed down through the Song Dynasty, over 1,000 years, exquisite workmanship, are national treasures level cultural relics. Temple thousands of years around the broad field of vision, but also a good place to view mountain.
I had originally planned that day to Xixiang Chi accommodation, evening watching "like pool Ye Yue", the next day on the golden dome. However, in years when the weather has been overcast temple at night it is impossible to see the moon had. According to the situation at that time the road traveled, decided the same day on the golden dome.
Years starting from 10:32 Temple, after a difficult "Watching the heart slope", all uphill, relatively steep stairs, heart rate reached by 11:30. Take a break after climbing up above the main slope, and sometimes, the less steep, 12:11 off the beginning of Temple, and then after a period of non-steep ascent, 12:30 to Kegon top. Can see the golden dome at the top of the main peak Kegon area. From the top down Kegon walk 12:45 to nine Ling Gang. 9 Ling-Gang Qing Yinge separated from the confluence of two mountain Road. In the nine Ling Kong a hotel eaten lunch, because up to hear more rampant monkey Lei Dongping area, a pair of Guangyuan, the past couple invited me to accompany him, and good care of each other. Two other way to get acquainted with their peers, so together we have five climbers.
13:36 departure from the nine Ling Gang. Ling-Gang Guo nine the number of visitors on foot after the encounter a number of foreign tourists account for a considerable proportion of what I have seen over more than a quarter. Guangyuan two peers who were climbing stamina pretty good, but the other two climbers slowly, climbing the steep "slope drilling days," when you often have to stop to wait, so the Xixiang Chi until 14:17. The road can be seen strains of steep ridges and peaks off the deep valleys, very spectacular. Xixiang Chi building rather special, with the tin roof, reportedly because of the monkeys and the like on the roof over. Guo Xixiang Chi and soon began landing "Ocean's slope," a long way steep slope, in order to board the golden dome in the day, two Guangyuan decided to break up with their peers. As the going up, more and more thick fog, the high mountains on behalf of Emei plants - tall, imposing multi-fir in the woods up in the mist deep in the woods look beautiful. Sometimes road through the Shenhe edge, can not see the end, we saw fog up Chung. Approaching Lei Dongping encountered a group of monkeys, because we have a walking stick, the monkeys did not Ganre us, the Monkey King bitterly Duoguo from our side. 16:15 arrive Lei Dongping.
2 Guangyuan, people may feel more tired and told me to go, in the Lei Dongping a stall selling tea, linger for a long time ago, so I am a man set off, go forward a lot faster. Go for a while he come to Guangyuan someone has bought a couple of pounds of kiwi on my backpack, I thought anyway, on a mountain Road, and so on up later then. Along the way slope, 16:38 Guo Jie Yindian, after a long, steep slope, 17:12 Prince Edward Guo Ping, 17:43 finally reached the golden dome.
The golden dome on the hazy fog that time, the wind is relatively large, icy mist into the wind filling clothes, feeling cold. In the above ten minutes stroll. Then in the nearby radio and television guest houses, opened the room, then down to the following intersection, etc. Guangyuan people. Waited for more than 20 minutes, they finally arrived, the kiwi back to them, I go to my room to rest.
October 10 morning, woke up very early in the evening following a night rain, this time although the rain had stopped, but open the windows looked, is still a fog. Wait until the fast 9:00, and the meaning fog still not dispersed, and could no longer wait. Back on the Golden Summit, a tour of China Fat Jong Temple, lying cloud Um, She Shenya other attractions. If we are lucky, you can look at the gold-roofed Buddhist, sunrise, sea of clouds, snow-capped mountains and other landscapes, but limited to the prevailing weather conditions, visibility 100 meters, however, was met with were all excluded from these landscapes ( "King of Shu," I Gongga Mountain most want to see the gold-roofed, but on the plane a few days later I saw the majesty of Gongga Mountain).
9:53 departure from the Golden Summit and started down the mountain. Under the drizzle along the way I feel is pretty cozy. 11:00 Guo Lei Dongping, 12:10 over Xixiang Chi. Xixiang Chi after the drizzle to light rain, to be umbrella, and after the light rain in the distance are traversed, fortunately, there is no wind, otherwise it is difficult to walk.
13:16 to nine Ling Kong, from the golden dome to nine Ling Kong are both the same route the previous day, 9 Ling-Gang down to the Qing Yinge I chose the route via Hong Chunping. In the nine Ling Kong, who wanted to go together, but even after more than 10 minutes no one came, so proceed alone. After the fog had thinned Jiuling Kong, and visibility has greatly improved, when approaching the event of Sin Temple to see the opposite side Qifeng in the mist-shrouded, like a fairy mountains, and imagination. Along steep slopes, 14:13 down to the bottom, face a man and a woman, so go together. Across the valley began climbing, arrived 15:19 Xianfeng Temple, which Xianfeng Temple of men and women decided to stay there. Xianfeng Temple, there are forks in the road to the old nine holes, limited to weather conditions, I did not go. Xianfeng Temple after, it is basically downhill, and long and steep, "99 Shui," It is in this paragraph, 15:55 Guo Cha Peng son of 16.24 down to the bottom, where there are bridges were Shouxing Bridge. Downhill course is expected to see some strange and dangerous pulling a small peak.
Starting from the god of longevity bridge, first slightly uphill, downhill, after all the way, not how steep, 17:15 to reach Hong Chunping. The road on the left is a deep valley, opposite to some Qixiu mountainous valley, to a very steep angle into the corner and beautiful. In the short sites where you can see the valley is far from the waterfall. After the Hong Chunping from the Qing Yinge only about an hour away, and that day is no problem coming out, but I do not hurry out of the mountains, so in Hong Chunping temple stay there, pending the weather improved the next day. Hong Chunping quiet, Temple weeks there are some beautiful peaks, building though not magnificent, but it is ancient. Hong Chunping gave me the feeling of vegetables are also good, taste is very delicious.
October 11 early morning, early being the more bell clear wake-up, it gets a look out, is a cloudy weather, it is fortunate that there is no white and so on. With plenty of sunshine, Hong Chunping the surrounding peaks and ridges have become Akihide, and decided to take a road back. 8:04 departure from Hong Chunping, up the road one day to go 8:52 go god of longevity bridge, retrace, 9:52 back to Hong Chunping. As the high visibility and saw some of the previous day did not see the scenery, the male of the Emei Mountain, Sau has also been a deeper experience.
From Hong Chunping downhill all the way down, down to 10000 Green Bridge posterior extension along the Heilongjiang, scenic way, and soon reach the eco-drama monkey area, a lot of monkeys here, but also management staff, in this opera Monkey safer. After another thin strip of sky, arrived in Qingyin Ge 11:25. From the Qing Yinge walked five significant post parking lot, putting an end to my journey on foot Emei Mountain.
Xixiang Chi - 9 Ling Kong - Hong Chunping - Qing Yinge this route I think is the best embodiment Emeishan the "show" (Lei Dongping - Xixiang Chi lines are also quite distinctive, but I was too foggy to go when thick), and now many people travel by car up and down Mount Emei, the actual area of Emei Golden Summit swim only high mountain scenery, and because gold at the most fog weather, many a time when visibility is not high on the Golden Summit, so a lot of visitors on the Mount Emei leave a bad impression. Tour Mount Emei, or should use their own legs in order to appreciate its extensive and profound.
Said earlier, I walk in the course of an important finding, specifically that: The current officially recognized, has been widely cited data on Mount Emei scenic spots mileage much higher than the actual values, the available data is most likely not a field investigation, but rather Chronicles from the ancient records, or by the mountain people's experience deserves to come.
The very beginning of data cast doubt on the existing mileage from years in the temple by the "concept of mind slope" after they climbed to the heart rate, this according to 5 km of the existing data on steep slopes only 58 minutes, when I was climbing a sub-paragraph should Xie Yixia slope, and I usually go in the ground is also quick to reach 5km / h speed. From the Temple by the Qing Yinge reported, thousands of years to the Golden Summit Monastery is 44 kilometers by available information, I have a share of the 10 hours 43 minutes, excluding mid-tour, meals and other delays, the actual walking time of less than 9 hours, average speed is equivalent to my usual fast pace. Down, from Xianfeng Temple through "99 Shui" on steep slopes to the Chapeng child in less than 36 minutes, this section of track at least 4.5 kilometers by available data, which is more incredible, because at that time under the light rain, I want to slip one hand, while also suffering a knee strain and can not move smoothly under the stairs, walk gingerly indeed.
Of course, the above is just my personal experience that is not necessarily credible, if there is no more objective evidence can only be used as wild talk. However, in Hong Chunping from the god of longevity to the foot of the bridge, watching the opposite Qixiu mountainous valleys, my mind sudden inspiration, I think of monk Ming Kam dream of a poem: "Emei high, high insert day, 100 Even 20 years smoke. Disk Space Bird Road 10 million fold, Qifeng blossoming open Qinglian. ", so I epiphany: In the Ming Dynasty, when people already think that the mountain Emei Mountain is 120 miles, rather from the Temple by the Qing Yinge reported, Hong Chunping to the main mountain Jinding Road (from the "Bird Road 10 million off the empty plate, Qifeng blossoming open Ching Lin," a poem of view, should be referring to this road), the current mileage data is like this: patriotic Temple (1km) Fuhu Si (1.5km) Leiyin Si (2.5km) Chun-yang Palace (3.5km) Holy Water Tower (1km) in the Peak Temple (2.5km) Qingyin Ge (1km) thin strip of sky (5km) Hong Chunping ( 9km) Chapeng child (6km) Xianfeng Temple (7.5km) case of Sin Temple (2.5km) 9 Ridge Gang (2.5km) Xixiang Chi (4km) Baiyun Si (3.5km) Lei Dongping (1.5km) Jieyin Dian ( 3.5km) Prince Ping (2.5km) Jinding, totaling 60.5 kilometers, the data are basically consistent with the ancient poet, so I can conclude that the current mileage data "from the Chronicles of ancient records, or by the mountain people's experience is worth to the" the. Distance from the attraction between the data itself of view, mantissa or not or for 0.5km, if it is unlikely that such a formal investigation results, most likely will get the "miles" simple divided by two to get. However, the ancient "inside" and the modern "inside" is very different.
According to my experience of the above, and Deng Deng Emei empirical estimation of other famous mountains: from baoguosi via Qingyin Ge, Hong Chunping to the golden dome of the mountain Road mileage is about 35 km (about 60 km of existing data); from baoguosi by Qingyin Ge, thousands of years the gold-roofed temple to the mountain Road mileage is about 30 kilometers (about 44 kilometers of existing data).
Mount Emei, as an inscription on the World Natural and Cultural Heritage of the eternal mountains, Sichuan tourism a window at home and abroad every year attracts millions of visitors come here sightseeing, worship, false attractions mileage data would cause inconvenience to many tourists do not help us a correct understanding of it. Mount Emei scenic spots mileage possible from the mountains has never been a comprehensive formal investigation, expect the unit to organize and carry out this work, I believe that very few inputs can be done as long as the measure, but it can create a good social and economic effects.
