Emeishan Spa Resort is a thermal wellness destination in Emeishan city in Sichuan Province, at the foot of Mount Emei — one of the four sacred Buddhist mountains of China and a UNESCO World Heritage Site — where bicarbonate thermal waters from the volcanic and sedimentary geology of the Sichuan basin edge offer therapeutic bathing in one of China's most spiritually significant mountain landscapes. Mount Emei, rising to 3,099 meters above the Chengdu Plain, has been a center of Chinese Buddhist practice since the Eastern Han dynasty and today hosts over 20 major temples within its primeval subtropical forest, which shelters the iconic Tibetan macaque monkeys and extraordinary floral biodiversity. Combining thermal spa relaxation with the spiritual and natural grandeur of one of China's holiest and most biologically diverse mountains, Emeishan Spa Resort offers an experience that transcends ordinary wellness tourism.

Insider tip — Emeishan Spa Resort nestles at the foot of UNESCO-listed Mount Emei, one of China's four sacred Buddhist mountains where golden summit temples pierce clouds above 3000 meters. The bicarbonate thermal waters provide welcome recovery for pilgrims and trekkers descending from the mountain's steep stone stairways. Soaking here at dusk while watching clouds drift over the dark forested slopes is an experience unique to this corner of western Sichuan.
