Cliff Inscription: “A Hundred-Zhang Waterfall Cascades into the Leaking Sky”

The cliff inscription “A Hundred-Zhang Waterfall Cascades into the Leaking Sky” is a protected cultural relic site of Guangzhou Municipality.

The cliff inscription “A Hundred-Zhang Waterfall Cascades into the Leaking Sky” is located atop the Baizhang Feiquan Waterfall at Tianhu in Wenquan Neighborhood Committee, Wenquan Town, Conghua District. Dating back to the Republican Era, it falls under the category of rock carving. At that time, Zou Lu, then president of Sun Yat-sen University, visited Tiannu Pool, was moved by the scenery, and inscribed a line from Su Shi’s poem—“A Hundred-Zhang Waterfall Cascades into the Leaking Sky”—on a large rock by the pool.

In December 2008, it was designated as part of the seventh batch of protected cultural relic sites of Guangzhou Municipality.
