Shiwu stream

Shiwu stream

Shiwu stream is located at the back hillside of Weimo temple at the north foot of Yushan Mountain. It is named because there is Shiwu cave in the stream. The stream is about 80 meters long, next to Taoyuan stream, with a stone cliff protruding like a house on top, which is called "Shiwu cave". It is said that Taigong once lived in seclusion here when he wanted to avoid Zhou. The stone cliff is about 31 meters long and 4.7 meters high,. The eaves are engraved with the four characters of "moon among the clouds", each of which is 0.2 meters high and 0.18 meters wide in running script. There is a four character poem written by Wu Shufen in the late Qing Dynasty, "stone is stubborn, not a house but a house. The sky is open and the people are blessed. All the people are hidden. The nest is made up of drinking calves, looking at the clouds with wine, cooking tea and burning bamboo, and the spring is clear. Be careful not to wash your feet.".
