Introduction
The Baoguo Temple, not far from Mount Emei, was built in the Wanli Period of the Ming Dynasty and is the starting point for most tourists to visit the Emei Mountain Scenic Area. The plaque of the "Baoguo Temple" on the temple gate is from the hand of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty. It is also the center of the Buddhist activities in the mountains. The main hall is the Maitreya Hall, the Daxiong Hall, the Seven Buddha Hall and the Puxian Hall. Today it is home to the Emeishan Buddhist Association, where many large ceremonies are held.

Legend has it that a hero who fought to defend his country and killed his enemy and died in battle, the country built a temple to honor his achievements.
This was my first Buddhist temple, and I rather enjoyed it. There is a short hike through nice forested area to get there. The price was inexpensive and it was not very crowded. The art and architecture is quite beautiful.
Hokoku Ji Temple was built in the Ming Dynasty (1573 years, 1619 years) and was the first temple of Mt. Emei. The first name was Kaishu Do hall. The first hall is Maitreya, and the second hall is Maitreya, and the Buddha Buddha, Shakyamuni, is decorated with a lotus statue. Continue to climb the stone steps is the seven Buddha Hall, the seven Buddha worshiped in the temple, and there is a Yongle porcelain Buddha with a high 2.4m. It is a porcelain Buddha statue made in Jingdezhen, Jiangxi, during the Yongle years of Ming Dynasty. There are many small dragons on the Buddha. Each dragon has a small golden Buddha with a different look. The last temple is the Phuxian Temple, which is dedicated to the Phuxian Bodhisattva, and the Sanmando Gandhara, which is the meaning of universal goodness. Mount Emei is the dojo of Phuxian Bodhisattva, so he is dedicated to the last temple.
the temple was ok, but very crowded and, unfortunaley, not well maintianed. there were children running around and yelling while people tried to pray which was disappointing. it is only ¥8 to enter and does deliver an interesting story on Buddhism and its history in Emeishan so it is worth it for the price.
Baoguo Temple is located at the foot of Fenghuangping at the foot of Mount Emei in Sichuan Province and is one of the key temples in the country. Outside the temple is one of the best places to stay for visiting Mount Emei. The Baoguo Temple Bus Station is next to it. You can take buses to Mount Emei, Leshan, Chengdu, and the departure point for going up the mountain to Leidongping. There is a Rongsheng Luobu soup shop outside, which is very famous nearby. Luobu soup is cheap and good, and the business is booming.
