Literature
Taohuatan Town is featured in "To Wang Lun", a poem by Li Bai:
李白乘舟將欲行
忽聞岸上踏歌聲
桃花潭水深千尺
不及汪倫送我情
Translation:
A boat I have boarded, Li Bai am I, and I'm all set to go,
When suddenly from the shore a din I hear, of stomping and singing I know.
The water in the Pool of Peach Blossoms is a thousand feet deep,
Deep not as the parting sentiments, to me, Wang Lun, you show.
