《徐霞客游记·粤西游日记三十三》
渡口的南面就是石峰成排并立，如标杆竖起似剑戟排列；渡口的北面是回绕合拢的石峰，中间裂开一条峡谷，外边凑拢如像一道门，有条小江自北往南流，注入洋渡的下游，就是汇水桥下合流的水流了。溯小江西岸进入峡中，弯弯转转都是在两列石山中，往北行数里，两列山渐渐开阔起来，中间环绕成平坦的田野，有独山村隔在其中，一座石山当中立在溪流西面是外层的案山，又有独山岩作为内层的案山。
渡之南则石峰离立，若建标列戟；渡之北则石峰回合，中开一峡，外凑如门，有小江自北而南，注于洋渡下流，溯小江西岸入峡，宛转俱从两界石山中，北行数里，两界山渐开渐拓，中环平畴，有独山村界其中，为外案，又有独山岩为内案。
To the south of the ferry are many stone peaks that stand in rows, like standards that have been raised and arranged like halberds; to the north of the ferry are peaks that are surround and converge, with a valley splitting among them. On the outside, they crowd together like a gate; a small river flows from north to south and empties into the downstream area of Yangdu. The waters that converge below this point are the ones that come together at Huishui Bridge. Ascending up the western bank of the small river and entering the valley, one follows a winding and turning path between two rows of stone mountains. Traveling northward for several li, the two rows of mountains gradually become wider, and are surrounded in the center by an area of flat fields. Dushayan Village is interspersed among them, and a stone mountain stands in the middle of the stream, on the western side, as an external screen and Dushayan Rock is the internal screen.
