Walking out of Hongchun Monastery,one crosses a bridge and climbs along the Path of 99 Bends. Soon after one poasses Lingxiao Pavilion, he arrives at Xianfeng Monastery.The monastery was built originally in 1281. In the following dynasties it was destroyed by fire disasters and rebuit many times. The current main buildings date back to the Qing Dynasty,and they include Xianhuang Stage,Maitreya Hall,the Great Buddha Hall,Sarira Pagoda and beautiful mountain villas. All the buildings are now roofed with tin tiles for the purpose of fire protetion. As one views the roofline of the monastery,the tin tiles glowing among luxuriously green trees look much like silvery or white jade. Therefore, the monastery is described as “Elongated Jade Tablet Among the Dark Green Sea”.
Sarira Pagoda,the third key hall,is also called Pali Hall. In the hall there is a gold gilded copper Sarira pagoda with seven_story,which stores
three Sarira pearls and two volumes of Pali sutra.They are all regarded as the treasures guarding the monastery. The pearls were broought into China from Sri Lanka by Monk Qing Fu and stored in Shanghai Longhua Monastery druing the period of the Republic of China (1921_1949). In the monastery guest hall hangs the paintings produced by Japanese monks in 1863. The brush strokes of these paintings posses a natural grace and elegance. One of the paintings is named the Nine Immortal Drawing, and the other A Bell Among Innumerable Valleys.To the left of the monastery is the Nine_Lotus Pool, one of the famous pools of the mountain. Several miles further beyond the pool is the Nine_immortal Cavern. Legend has it that the cavern used to be a place where some Daoist immortals secluded. Behind the Xianfeng Monastery is an age_old tree,whose height is 26m and central section 5.1m in diametre. The tree is at least 500 years old. The stone pavilion in front of the monastery is Xianhuang Stage. This is the place where Xuanyuan emperor, while traveling,encountred Immortal Tianhuang in legend. Sevel miles beyond the pavilion is Xiangui Stone. Around the stone are dove tress,covering a space of hunderds of mu. In April and May of the each year, the countless flowers in full bloom look breath_takingly magnificent. These blossoms, bursting with light ,seem to dye the undulating forest with spashes of white, as if numberless pigeons were hovering in flocks. 
Walking out of the monastery,one passes a bridge,climbs Changshou Slope and steps into Yuxian Monastery . Yuxian means “coming across an immortal”. In Yuxian Monastery there was a well_known celebrity of the Han Dynasty whose name was Douyi once came across an immortal that rode a gragon flying up into the sky. Behind the monastery stand two upright stones; and the mountain path goes through the monastery,leading to an exceptionally unique cavern. Miraculously, fresh vegetables and fruits do not rot, even when stored for a long time in the cavern.Even dry or decayed vegetables and fruits turn green after one day of storage inside. Outside the monastery there is a platform where one is able to view the surrounding scenery and have fun with wide monkeys.
There are four Emei monkey communities,large or small, along the route between Qingyin Pavilion and Hongchun Monastery. Monkeys usually stand along the path,begging tourists for food. One of the main attractions on Mt.Emei is to have fun with monkeys as one tours the mountain. In Xixiang Poll section there are other groups of monkeys who are on intimate terms with human beings. Monkeys often enter houses where they sit down with human beings,eating or drinking together. Their behavior seems refined and polite .
