The picture shows that the peak rock is steep and towering, with a triple waterfall hanging upside down between the rocks. The picturesque peaks and waters are pleasing to the eye. Nearby, the pines are verdant, and one person is walking with a stick under the tree, listening and watching, admiring the waterfalls and flowing springs, and listening to the clear sounds of the landscape.
