Leshan Attractions

The city of Leshan attracts hundreds of thousands of people every year, and yet it does not have the glitz and glamour that is present in China’s biggest entertainment and financial districts such as Shanghai and Beijing. What is its secret?

The city of Leshan attracts hundreds of thousands of people every year, and yet it does not have the glitz and glamour that is present in China’s biggest entertainment and financial districts such as Shanghai and Beijing. What is its secret?

The answer does not lie in any of the establishments or restaurants. It is all around it—in the cliffs, in the mountains, especially in Mount Emei Scenic Area where both boasts stunning natural scenery and rich cultural relics.

Mount Emei

Mount Emei is so captivating and truly breathtaking that even the UNESCO is enamored, especially when it decided to include in it the World’s Heritage List many years ago. It is incredibly rich with endemic species of flora and fauna. The climate is perfect for growing, and the land is fertile. Click for more.

Leshan Giant Buddha

The serene, majestic Mount Emie Scenic Area is incredibly beautiful and breathtaking that it’s now part of UNESCO’s World Heritage List, and in one of the gentle slopes and cliffs can be found a massive structure that never fails to impress any traveler who gets a glimpse of it: Leshan Giant Buddha.Click to know more.

Jiayang Steam Train

China has definitely evolved over the years in almost all aspects, such as in transport. Today it’s rare to find rickshaws unless you proceed to old towns and theme parks. Buses have become faster and more convenient, most of which are already fitted with air-conditioning for comfort. Trains, on the other hand, have become speedier, thanks to more modern fitted engines.


For a traveler, it may be quite difficult to find age-old Chinese transport options unless you go to a museum. That may change, however, once you visit Leshan and ride the Jiayang steam train. Click to get more.
