The green hills on both sides are neck and neck, and a boat meets leisurely from the horizon.
Translation:
The Yangtze River splits the male peak of Tianmen like a giant axe, and the Qingjiang River flows eastward here.

Creative background:
Looking at Tianmen Mountain was written by Li Baichu on his way to Jiangdong via Dangtu (now Anhui) in 725 AD (13th year of Kaiyuan).
Appreciate:
The last sentence is a continuation of the second sentence, which describes the prospect of the Yangtze River. The surging river crossing Tianmen Mountain flows eastward to infinity. On the horizon rising from the red sun in Ran Ran, a sailboat is heading for Tianmen Mountain. It is said that the ship is far away.
Writing about the distance of the river does not directly point out the water, but the boat on the water, so that people can imagine the distance of the river from "the sun is coming". Looking into the distance, there is nothing in the sky. The Chu River is clear, with vast smoke waves, solitary sails and red sun, and picturesque rivers and mountains.
This poem has broad artistic conception, heroic spirit, fluent syllables, vivid language and bright colors. Although there are only four short sentences and twenty-eight words, the artistic conception it constitutes is so beautiful and magnificent that people seem to be in it after reading the poem.
The poet leads the reader's vision along the foggy Yangtze River to the infinite world, which makes people feel open-minded and broad-minded. From here, we can see Bai's uninhibited spirit and broad-minded mind that he doesn't want to confine himself to.
This poem is similar to Wang Zhihuan's Dengque Building, one is about the Yellow River and the other is about the Yangtze River. The landscape situation has its own characteristics, and the artistic conception in the works is not the same, but they are all representative works of lyric poetry in the prosperous Tang Dynasty.
The similarity between them is * * *, with broad artistic conception and majestic weather, both of which are full of vigorous vitality and positive power. Li Bai is the crown of the seven wonders of the Tang Dynasty, and he is best at creating in a limited space.
Because the last sentence is full of the poet's passion in the narrative, this poem depicts the magnificent scenery of Tianmen Mountain and highlights the poet's self-image, which is heroic, unrestrained, free and unrestrained.
The author introduces:
Li Bai (70 1-762) was a great romantic poet in Tang Dynasty, and he was also called "Poet Fairy" and "Du Li" with Du Fu.
In order to distinguish Li Shangyin and Du Mu from "Little Du Li", Du Fu and Li Bai are also called "Big Du Li". He is cheerful and generous, loves to drink and write poems, and likes to make friends.
Li Bai was deeply influenced by Huang Lao's idea of sorting out villages. Li Taibai's poems have been handed down from generation to generation, and most of his poems were written when he was drunk. His representative works include Looking at Lushan Waterfall, it is hard to go, Difficult Road to Shu, Entering Wine, Liang, First Sending Baidicheng, etc.
