峨眉山古建筑群, Buddhist architectural complex at Mount Emei, China.

The architectural ensemble encompasses numerous temples and shrines distributed across Mount Emei, featuring structures from various Chinese dynasties.

Construction of religious buildings at Mount Emei began in the 1st century BCE, with major expansion during the Tang Dynasty when it gained prominence.

The temples contain collections of Buddhist sculptures, paintings, and ceremonial objects that demonstrate the evolution of religious practices in China.

The complex remains accessible throughout the year, with cable cars and shuttle buses connecting different sections of the mountain temple network.

The Golden Summit temple contains a statue of Samantabhadra mounted on four bronze elephants, standing at an elevation of 3077 meters.
