On our ascent up the mountain we took a break to cool our feet off in 'Jade Spring.' It is thought that the great Daoist master Chen Tuan practiced in seclusion at this very spot (notice the rectangular cave in the side of the cliff). He survived on the many fruits and powerful herbs that grow on the mountain. After years of meditating in isolation he achieved 'immortality.' He was supposedly brought to this place by five dragons. Kalila was brought here by two monkeys!
