The poet Li Bai was free and easy by nature. Where did he go?

1. On the Jingmen Mountain on the south bank of the Yangtze River in the northwest of Yidu County, Hubei Province, he wrote the poem "Visiting Danyang Lake":

I traveled far beyond Jingmen to travel from Chu State. The mountains end with the plains, and the river flows into the wilderness.

Under the moon, there is a flying mirror, and the clouds form a sea tower. I still feel sorry for the water in my hometown, and send my boat sailing thousands of miles away.

Vernacular translation: I took a boat across the river to the distant Jingmen Gate and visited the territory of Chu State during the Warring States Period. The mountains gradually disappeared, the plains slowly spread out, and the river seemed to flow into the vast wilderness. The shadow of the moon in the waves is like a bright mirror flying from the sky, and the colorful clouds in the sky form a beautiful mirage. But I still love the surging river in my hometown more. It flows endlessly and accompanies me when I travel thousands of miles.

2. Jingzhou City, Hubei Province, wrote the poem "Jingzhou Song":

There is a lot of trouble near Baidi City,

Who dares to cross Qutang in May?

The wheat in Jingzhou ripens into cocoons and turns into moths.

There are many clues in the silk thread to recall the king.

What a concubine!

Vernacular translation: The river beside Baidi City is full of turbulent waves caused by the strong wind. Who dares to sail across the Qutang Gorge in May? In the wheat season in Jingzhou, moths have emerged from the cocoons, silkworms are ready, and every family is cooking cocoons and reeling silk. While I was reeling, I missed you. I missed you more than the clues in a mess of silk. When the cuckoo cries, it makes me miss you even more. What should I do?

3. Emeishan City, Emeishan City, Sichuan Province, wrote the poem "Moon Song of Mount Emei":

The half-cycle autumn moon of Mount Emei casts its shadow into the water of Pingqiang River.

The clear stream flows towards the Three Gorges at night, and I miss you and go down to Yuzhou without seeing you.

Vernacular translation: In front of the tall Mount Emei, a half-round autumn moon hangs. The flowing Pingqiang River reflects the bright moon shadow. Set off by boat at night, leaving Qingxi and heading straight to the Three Gorges. I miss you but it’s hard to see you, so I reluctantly go to Yuzhou.

4. Baidi City, Fengjie County, Chongqing, wrote the poem "Early Departure from Baidi City":

The White Emperor's farewell speech among the colorful clouds, thousands of miles of rivers and mountains are returned in one day.

The apes on both sides of the strait can't stop crying, and the boat has passed the Ten Thousand Mountains.

Vernacular translation: Say goodbye to Baidi City among the white clouds in the early morning. Jiangling, thousands of miles away, can be reached in one day. The apes on both sides of the river were crying incessantly, and the light boat had sailed past thousands of green mountains.

5. In Lushan Mountain in Lushan City, Jiujiang City, Jiangxi Province, he wrote a poem "Looking at the Lushan Waterfall":

The incense burner produces purple smoke in the sunshine, and the waterfall hangs in front of the river in the distance.

Flying down three thousand feet, it is suspected that the Milky Way has fallen into the sky.

Vernacular translation: The sun shines on Xianglu Peak, creating curls of purple smoke. From a distance, the waterfall looks like a long river hanging in front of the mountain. It seems like three thousand feet of water rushing straight down. Could it be that the Milky Way is falling from the sky to the cliff.
