Introduction In the ravine between the Stone Bamboo Shoots and the Immortal Peak, there lies a massive rock whose lower part resembles a ——, and upper part looks like a person standing upright. When viewed from Yuping Tower (or Tiandu Peak) to the north, one can see his clothing fluttering in the wind, flowing gracefully. When surrounded by surging sea of clouds, it appears as if the figure is floating on the clouds, resembling someone crossing the ocean, hence likened to the legendary “immortal riding the sea to Penglai.” A contemporary poet wrote: “Wherever the floating clouds surge, mountains circle waters flow; the stubborn stone rides the waves where winds blow. Gazing afar to the ends of the earth, where indeed does one go? Better to watch autumn tides at Yellow Sea’s flow.”
