Renzi Waterfall

　　    Formerly called "Flying Rainfall," it lies between Zishi and Zhusha peaks near the hot springs at an elevation of 660 meters. The waterfall originates from one source but splits into two flows, taking the shape of the Chinese character "人", hence its name. It is also referred to as the "Twin Dragons Waterfall" due to its resemblance to two white dragons cascading down. Since it stands behind the towering Tiandu Peak that seems to touch the sun, it is also known as the "Tiandu Waterfall."

　　    With cliffs hundreds of feet high and rocks jutting from their cores, the waterfall lies between Zishi and Zhusha peaks near the hot springs. Its single source diverges into two streams, forming the shape of a “人”, and is 50 meters long. During the rainy season, the volume of water increases dramatically, making this giant “人” shape robust and powerful, much like the regular script of Yan Lugong (Yan Zhenqing). In contrast, during dry spells when water is scarce, the waterfall becomes slender and faint, delicate and light, resembling Li Yangbing’s “Iron Wire Seal Script.”

　　    On the middle rock face of the waterfall, there are stone steps built during the Ming Dynasty for climbing. As visitors ascend, they resemble arhats ascending to heaven, hence the name "Luohan Steps." On the mountainside of Taohua Peak, there is a Waterfall Viewing Pavilion, which offers the best view of Renzi Waterfall. From the pavilion, one can see the waterfall gushing forth from a single source that splits into two, cascading diagonally downward, strikingly resembling a bold and powerful “人” character painted by a calligrapher.

　　    The best time to view Renzi Waterfall is during or right after rainfall; it is difficult to see in prolonged dry weather. In 1965, a visitor wrote a poem upon seeing it: “In sunshine, admire the peaks; in rain, watch the twin falls. With Huangshan before me, all is delightful in fair or foul weather.” Stone steps carved into the bedrock of the waterfall are called "Luohan Steps," which were used by ancient climbers. The Waterfall Viewing Pavilion halfway up Taohua Peak is the ideal spot to view Renzi Waterfall.
