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

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.
