Fodor's Expert Review Baoguo Monastery
Baoguo Si, Emeishan, Sichuan, 614201, China
This monastery at the foot of the mountain is one of the many accommodations available to those journeying to the Golden Summit. Few people stay here because it sits near the start of the path up the mountain, but if you are arriving late, this quiet, if slightly damp, hotel is a good option. The monks have even added some higher-end rooms with air-conditioning and TVs.
PROS
- monastic experience
- handy location
- reasonable rates
CONS
- pretty basic
- rooms can get a bit chilly
- limited English
