Geological Museum

Overview: The geological evolution of Mt. Emei can be summarized as “It has been gestated for 800 million years, developed for 70 million years and has been further improving for 2 million years”. After thousands of thousands of years’ evolution and countless intense tectonic movements, various types of geologic structures have been formed.As there exist strata of all the 13 geological periods, except middle and late Ordovician, Silurian, Devonian and Carboniferous, Mt. Emei is thus called a Geological Museum.
