《徐霞客游记·滇游日记七》
往西看山峰背后，下面有重叠的沟壑，沟壑西北远处有座最高的山峰，像背靠屏风朝见群臣的帝王一样率领群山，群山簇拥环列在它的周围，看起来离得很近，开始我以为是嵩明州的最高峰，却不知道原来它就是梁王山的东面。
西望峰后，下有重壑，壑西北有遥巚最高，如负扆挈领，拥列回环，瞻之甚近，余初以为嵩明之冠，而不知其即梁王之东面也。
Looking west behind the peaks, there are overlapping ravines below, and there is the tallest peak in the far northwest of the ravines. It leads the mountains like a monarch with his back against a screen meeting his courtiers. The mountains cluster around it and look very close. At first I thought it was the highest peak of Songming Prefecture, but I didn't know it was the east of Liangwang Mountain.
