The 27th Mountain Emei Ice, Snow & Hot Spring Season Invites Global Visitors to “Enjoy Winter Fun”
As night fell, the dazzling light show on the Jiaozhi Twin Towers brought the iconic cultural and tourism elements of Mount Emei to life through dynamic visuals, from towering peaks and misty hot springs to auspicious, adorable elephants, playful monkeys, and flurrying snowscapes. At the event, the Leshan Cultural Tourism Ambassador unveiled a winter travel guide packed with exciting new experiences beyond the classic “snow sightseeing, hot spring baths, and culinary delights”. Visitors can explore the region aboard double-decker sightseeing buses, stop at unique spots such as the Diechuan Malt Whisky Experience Center on the southern slopes of Mount Emei, or discover cultural landmarks like the Palace Museum Relics Southward Migration Exhibition Hall. This journey offers a profound blend of natural experiences and cultural discovery.
The event also featured an innovative skit that presented novel ways to enjoy Mount Emei in winter. Malaysian tourists joined actors in immersive scenes, from admiring snow-capped vistas at the Golden Summit, skiing at the Leidongping Ski Resort, soaking in the therapeutic Lingxiu Hot Springs, to exploring the intangible cultural heritage of Emei Wushu. The immersive performance allowed them to fully experience the captivating winter charm of Mount Emei.
Additionally, the Mount Emei Scenic Area introduced three highly anticipated winter travel incentives that evening.
From January 1 to April 30, 2026 (excluding the Spring Festival Golden Week), full-price ticket holders who visit only either the Qingyin Area or the Wannian Area, or hike to the Golden Summit Area from these two spots, will automatically receive scenic area exclusive currency equivalent to 50% of their ticket price. This credit will be deposited into their digital wallets on the official tourism platform of Mount Emei and is redeemable for expenses at both online and offline partner merchants, covering dining, accommodation, cultural and creative products, and other eligible purchases.
From December 1, 2025 to January 31, 2026 (excluding national statutory holidays), individual shareholders holding 500 or more shares of Emeishan A stock as well as representatives of corporate shareholders are entitled to four exclusive complimentary privileges: free entry to the scenic area, free access to the Wannian Cableway, free snowboarding at the Leidongping Ski Resort, and free admission to the three major hot springs. Accompanying family members are also entitled to seven exclusive discount privileges for scenic area tickets, cableway rides, and hot spring access.
Tailored preferential policies are available for various tour groups, including full-mountain tour groups, large-scale tour groups, inbound tour groups, and study tour groups. Guides and leaders of inbound tour groups (including those from Hong Kong, Macao, and Taiwan regions) are eligible for a 50% discount on sightseeing bus tickets, with the groups being eligible for half-price admission to the Mount Emei Scenic Area.
This year’s Ice, Snow & Hot Spring Season will last through March 2026, transforming Mount Emei into a winter-long paradise of snow and joy. Beyond the classic experiences like snow fun and hot spring baths, a series of innovative interactive events will be launched, including the “Global Search for Emei’s Kindred Spirits” campaign, the Ice and Snow Kung Fu Challenge, and the “Snowy Little Macaque” Photography Contest.

SINGAPORE – Media OutReach Newswire – 12 May 2026 – Watchbook Singapore has opened a second boutique at Far East Plaza, separating its curated collections across two dedicated spaces on the same floor to give collectors a more focused buying experience.
The expansion allows Watchbook to organise its inventory by brand family. The main boutique at #03-139 focuses on Rolex, Patek Philippe, Audemars Piguet and Cartier. The new boutique at #03-55 features contemporary luxury watches including Tudor, Omega, Hublot and other brands.

Watchbook enters this next phase as Singapore’s second-highest-reviewed watch dealer, with more than 2,400 verified Google reviews reflecting thousands of successful transactions. Both boutiques are backed by the company’s end-to-end model: in-house authentication, a dedicated service centre staffed by certified watchmakers, and curated inventory under one roof.
