《徐霞客游记·滇游日记十二》
其峡谷由南北两边的山壁对夹而成，道路从溪流北岸顺着北山山麓进去，一里，抬头看到北崖上面，石壁盘环突立，壁间并列着很多道门，而东边的一道门高悬在空中、正正俯视峡谷，气势特别雄伟开阔，但石阶的痕迹十分细微，荆棘遮盖、石崖崩塌，几乎没有落脚的地方。
其峡南北山壁夹而成，路由溪北沿北山之麓入，一里，仰见北崖之上，石壁盘突，其间骈列多门，而东一门高悬危瞰，势独雄豁，而磴迹甚微，棘翳崖崩，莫可著足。
The canyon is formed by the walls of mountains on both sides north and south, and the road goes in from the north shore of the stream along the foot of the north mountain. After a mile, I looked up to see above the north cliff, stone walls surrounding and protruding, and many doors lined up in the wall. The door on the east side is high and suspended in the air, overlooking the canyon. The momentum is particularly magnificent and open, but the traces of the stone steps are very slight, covered with thorns and collapsed stone cliffs, with almost no place to stay.
