峨眉山风景区_含乐山大佛风景区

公元1世纪，在峨嵋山景色秀丽的山巅上，落成了中国四川省的第一座佛教寺院。随着四周其他寺庙的建立，该地成为佛教的主要圣地之一。许多世纪以来，积淀了大量的文化财富。人们于8世纪时在俯瞰三江交汇处的一座山岩上雕凿出来的乐山大佛闻名于世，它像高71米，堪称世界之最。峨嵋山还因其种类繁多而丰富的植物而名闻天下。从亚热带到亚高山的针叶林带里的植物应有尽有，有的树木还龄逾千年。

The first Buddhist temple in China was built here in Sichuan Province in the 1st century A.D. in the beautiful surroundings of the summit Mount Emei. The addition of other temples turned the site into one of Buddhism's holiest sites. Over the centuries, the cultural treasures grew in number. The most remarkable is the Giant Buddha of Leshan, carved out of a hillside in the 8th century and looking down on the confluence of three rivers. At 71 m high, it is the largest Buddha in the world. Mount Emei is also notable for its exceptionally diverse vegetation, ranging from subtropical to subalpine pine forests. Some of the trees there are more than 1,000 years old.
