Moonlit Fishing Weir at Night The Jinjiang River is blocked downstream by a southern mountain, as if it has lost its way to flow further. There lies a shoal called Yuliang Shoal. Fishermen built fishing weirs on the shoal to catch fish. At night, the scattered lights from fishing boats and the bright moonlight complement each other, creating an atmosphere of serene tranquility. Above Yuliang Shoal are peaks such as Wenbi Peak and Taiyi Peak. The scenery that inspired Su Shi’s “Ode to the Red Cliff,” where he marveled at “lofty mountains and a small moon, the murmuring river flowing by,” seems to come alive here.
