The second specialty is Emei Mountain natural honey. Emei Mountain has a mild and humid climate and rich vegetation, which makes the honey here unique and delicate. The natural honey in Emei Mountain has three different scents, corresponding to different bee varieties and flowers. It tastes mellow and sweet, and contains many essential amino acids, enzymes and vitamins.
The third specialty is Panzhihua pork in Emei Mountain. This kind of pork is tender, with more lean meat and less fat. Because I grew up in the alpine environment of Emei Mountain, I need a lot of exercise and eat plants. It tastes sweet and has no fishy smell, and is known as "the treasure of China's meat".
