普救寺

Pujiu Temple extends across 93,300 square meters on three terraced levels, featuring multiple halls, pavilions, and corridors arranged along eastern, central, and western axes.

The temple dates back to Tang Dynasty under Wu Zetian's reign, initially named Xiyongqing Court, and underwent substantial renovations in 1986 with a 4.35 million yuan investment.

The temple gained recognition through its connection to the Yuan Dynasty romance story of Zhang Sheng and Cui Yingying, depicted in the classical drama 'The West Chamber'.

The temple operates daily with peak season hours from 8:00 to 18:00 and off-season hours from 8:30 to 17:30, located 3 kilometers from Mount Emei.

The Yingying Tower produces an echo effect that sounds like a frog's croak when tapped, earning recognition as one of the eight historical scenes of Yongji.
