Sanjiang Dao, Jizhou, White Cloud Mountain, White Cloud Temple.
Even though this was not Lu Zheng's first time here, every visit, gazing all around, he could still deeply feel the essence of this famous Daoist mountain.
Looking west at Jizhou Prefecture, viewing north to East Celestial River, backed by a range of mountains, the mountain's form was majestic, with a myriad of phenomena, pine and cypress standing tall, white stones like jade.
The mountain remains green year-round, the summit is ever-covered by a sea of clouds, streams meander through the woods, waterfalls spray mist, birds roam among the trees, while pilgrims climb the mountain without interference.
A paifang stands at the foot of the mountain, a White Rock Mountain Dao path built along the mountain's contours, stacking stones to form a path to the mountain, winding upwards, vanishing into the mountain, like a white dragon in the clouds.
