《徐霞客游记·粤西游日记六》
此洞北边深入进去，南边高高隆起，十分空旷、平坦、明亮，中央向南之处有一块岩石耸立，好像高台，丰边有尊石佛，不知它是从哪里来的，佛子洞的名字就是由此来的。石佛前有根巨大的石柱，如屏风样屹立在中央，把东西两面分隔成两道石门：西边的石窍又大又正，从下边远望去，从窍中一直看到北面的山，可东边的却隐而不见；东边的石窍又狭又偏，此窍之内在东面旋绕出一个石完，中间圆圆地覆盖下来而外边两旁相夹如门，门上龙虎交立两旁，有人因而把它们加以雕凿彩绘，反而失去了天然的真趣，损害了真实。
其前有巨石柱，如屏中峙，东西界为两门：西窍大而正，自下远眺，从窍直透北山，而东则隐焉；东窍狭而偏，其窍内东旋一龛，中圆覆而外夹如门，门上龙虎交两旁，有因而雕缋ì之者，及失天真，则真之宫也。
This cave goes deep into the north, and towers high in the south, very spacious, flat, and bright, with a rock standing in the middle to the south, like a high platform, on which there is a stone Buddha, I do not know where it came from, this is the origin of the name the Buddha Child Cave. Before the Stone Buddha there is a huge stone pillar, standing in the center like a screen, dividing the east and west sides into two stone gates: the stone hole in the west is large and straight, looking up from below, and you can see the mountains in the north from the hole, but the east side is hidden from sight; the stone hole in the east is narrow and biased, inside this hole winds a stone circle on the east side, covered with a round center and held on the sides like a door, with a dragon and a tiger standing on both sides of the door, and someone carved and painted them, but on the contrary, it lost its natural charm and damaged its authenticity.
