《徐霞客游记·楚游日记一》
涧中水流往北汇人大江，紫云山和它西面的山峰被水流分隔开。渡过涧流就是青莲庵，它朝向东面而突出出来，地方清幽而庵中洁净。
后山夹而成者。渡涧即青莲庵，东向而出，地幽而庵净。
The stream in the canyon flowed north into the big river, and it divided the Zijun Mountain and the mountain peaks west of it. After crossing the stream, there was the Qinglian Nunnery, which was prominent to the east, with a secluded location and clean nunnery.
