From Taibai Tower down the gravel road, the end point is Caishiji. Stepping on the stone steps all the way to the bottom of Caishiji, looking at the cliffs on the back and side, overlooking the rushing river, can not help but remind people of Li Bai's well-known poem "Tianmen breaks the Chu River, and Higashi Shimizu flows here". The green hills on both sides of the strait are opposite, and the sails are alone. ""the tide has reached Xunyang in the south, and Niuzhu is blocked by dangerous horses. "

Cai Ji has a stone engraved with "Running to Taiwan". Legend has it that Li Bai got drunk here and fell into the river.
