## About Shiliang Flying Waterfall

You haven’t truly been to Tiantai Mountain until you have seen Shiliang. Its fame rests entirely on water and terrain, and here the highlight is the flying waterfall. Hidden in a mountain gorge and accompanied by the chanting of temple bells, such a waterfall is rare indeed. No wonder *The Legend of the Condor Heroes* was filmed here. Follow in the footsteps of the traveller Xu Xiake up to Guanpu Pavilion (观瀑亭) to take in the full, grand view, and you will surely feel, as he did, the urge to compose poetry. Deep in the mountains lies Fangguang Temple, small and secluded, a fine place for reflecting on the transience of life.
