For instance, it has built a 350-meter-long ice slide, believed to be China's longest, committee official Wang Dong says.

Kids play in the snow, explore ice castles and ride bumper cars on ice. Local schools make field trips to the attraction.

The 154-square-kilometer mountain range starts at 500 meters above sea level and surges to 3,099 meters at its apex. So, it hosts a broad array of temperatures.

A saying about Emei goes: "Four seasons exist simultaneously on one mountain."

Its peak is snowy, and flowers bloom at its base in March. It's sweltering at the foot yet cool at the top in summer.

Azaleas paint the landscape red in spring. Summer is verdant with trees and grass. Leaves blast color in fall. And winter, of course, coats the area in white.

Emei Mountain hosts four celebrated views from its Golden Summit: sunrise, sunset, the Sea of Clouds and Buddha's Aureole.

The relatively rare aureole manifests as rings of rainbows created by rarefactions of the mists. They appear to emanate from people's shadows in a cloud bank below the summit on rare afternoons.

Devout Buddhists sometimes leapt off the Cliff of Self-Sacrifice in ancient times. This prompted officials in the Ming (1368-1644) and Qing (1644-1911) dynasties to install fences to prevent suicides.

It takes a full day or two to hike to the peak. But visitors today typically take a cable car much of the way.

They enjoy panoramic views of firs, pines and cedars among cloud-kissing crags. Butterflies and flowers provide flashes of color.

Emei Mountain hosts over 3,200 plant species, 1,600 of which are believed to have medicinal value. Many are endangered, such as dove trees and gingkoes.

The peak also hosts over 2,300 animal varieties, 29 of which enjoy State-level protection, including the giant panda, the lesser panda and monkeys.

Visitors to Emei Mountain in the cold months will discover a winter wonderland. But those who visit during other seasons will discover how the same mountain offers different allures throughout the year.
