Introduction Little Penglai is located behind the main hall of Yanfu Temple. Passing through the cool shade of the golden-inlaid-jade bamboo forest, you can see three large ancient characters carved into the stone cliff — “小蓬莱” (“Little Penglai”) in seal script. Each character is 30 centimeters in diameter, with bold strokes that resemble iron wires and silver hooks. In Li Ruzhen’s novel *Flowers in the Mirror*, Little Penglai is described as the essential path to heaven, where Tang Ao and the Fairy of a Hundred Flowers, Tang Guichen, both ascended to immortality from this very spot.
