Mount Omei (also Emei) is one of the Four Sacred Buddhist Mountains of China, located in Sichuan Province. This mountain is famous for its stunning scenery, ancient temples, and rich cultural heritage. A specific section of the ascent up Mount Emei, known for its challenging and winding path is referred to as the 99 turns, or bends. This part of the journey involves navigating numerous sharp turns and steep inclines, making it a physically demanding segment of the pilgrimage or trek. The name "99 Turns" emphasizes the arduous nature of the climb
