Emeishan 
Golden peak temple (Jinding Si), is situated about 20m below the summit. This building is a 65m long bronze hall, and this location provides some of the best views of the entire mountain. A spectacular weather phenomenon occurs at the peak every so often, known locally as the "Buddha's glow". When the sun shines in a certain direction, an observers shadow is cast onto the cliffs and surrounded with a "glow" of rainbow colors. This incredible sight can be seen from an airplane too and only occurs in three places in the world. Buddhists see this as a special sign that they have been chosen and there have been numerous suicides resulting from this sight as Buddhists leap for nirvana. Chains have now been constructed around the edge of the cliffs in an attempt to put a stop to this. Winter is the best season to experience this phenomenon as the weather conditions are most suitable during this time. You can stay the night in the temple and then join the crowds at dawn to watch the sunrise. The true summit of the mountain is a further hour away at Wanfoding, the Ten Thousand Buddha summit.
