援登萬仞峰,遙上仙雲路。

峨眉山的盛名,有不少是來自於從峨眉金頂眺望,可以收覽到的無盡美景。 而可以收覽這些美景的一個重要條件,是峨眉山顯著高過附近的山巒及原野。 然而,是甚麼因素讓峨眉山,能以三千公尺的高度傲視周遭呢?
在峨眉金頂,除了普賢菩薩和白馬的雕像之外,還有三座大型的建築物,分別是金殿、銀殿、和舊的大殿。其中金殿和舊的大殿的屋頂,都採用了〝三重簷歇山式〞,這在中國的建築傳統裡,是相當高的規格,僅次於〝重簷廡殿式〞,和極為少見的〝三重簷廡殿式〞。
This is the 3rd part of the travel notes covering the trip to Er-Mei Mountain. This mountain towers over neighboring hills and plains, providing excellent panoramic scenery. Such an outstanding vista position was created by the stress originated from Himalaya Orogeny. Even with heavy erosion inflicted by weathering and glaciation, the mountain still stands over 3000 meters tall today.
The scenery from the peak commands a wide variety, as rendered by weather condition at the time. The most impressive view is when there is a sea cloud below, occasionally one can see his/her own shadow encircled by a halo. In the past, when optical explanation was not available, such a scene was often interpreted as divine manifestation.
