Sichuan
In Emei, Sichuan Province, China, on July 19, 2011, the summit of Mount Emei, one of the four sacred mountains of Chinese Buddhism, rises over 3,000 meters above sea level and reveals its golden temples shimmering at sunrise. The air is heavy with incense and carries the chants of pilgrims. This place embodies the meeting of wild nature, millennia-old spirituality, and inner quest. (Photo by Emeric Fohlen/NurPhoto)
