Sichuan
In Mount Emei, Sichuan Province, China, on July 19, 2011, pilgrims light large incense sticks at the summit of Mount Emei in a gesture steeped in fervor and tradition. The smoke rises slowly in the fresh mountain air, mingling with the clouds and Buddhist chants that resonate around the temples. On this sacred site, a major center of Chinese Buddhism, incense becomes an offering to the divinities, a bridge between the earthly and spiritual worlds. Each flame lit carries a prayer, a wish, an invisible bond between humanity and heaven. (Photo by Emeric Fohlen/NurPhoto)
