The Emei Conqueror!

After 10 hours of walking uphill with only a few tea breaks (hey, I'm English!) I made it to the top of Emeishan and was greeted by this amazing statue of Buddha on Elephants. I reached the summit just before sunset but due to cloud cover I was not to see the beautiful sunset I had hoped for. I am told there is only a 1 in 3 chance of having an unobscured view. The climb was well worth the effort despite the poor visability.

Leshan Buddha

The Leshan Buddha was carved out of the cliff and originally covered in gold and jewels. It is the largest buddha in the world and I spent a great day out in the company of some friends from Mix hostel, Chengdu.

León Cathedral

Santa María de León Cathedral, also called The House of Light is situated in the city of León in north-west Spain. It was built on the site of a previous Roman hot baths of the 2nd century which, 800 years later, the emblematic king Ordoño II converted into a palace. Its doors, its impressive rose window, the choir (one of the oldest in the country) and the delicacy of some figures, like the venerated Virgen Blanca presiding over the constant traffic of visitors, are some of the not-to-be-missed features of this cathedral. The León Cathedral, dedicated to Santa María de la Regla, was declared of Cultural Interest in 1844. It is known as the Pulchra Leonina and it is a masterpiece of the Gothic style dominating the mid 13th century, by master architect Enrique. In the late 16th century it was virtually finished. It was erected on the site of Roman hot baths dating from the 2nd century, which were converted into a royal castle by king Ordoño II in the 10th century.
