The peach orchard is an important theme in ancient China's literary and classical arts, with the two main types being fairylands and real-world orchards. The theme of this painting is a scene from a real-world peach orchard based on human landscapes. The scroll contains mountains, green hills, flowing streams, lush forests, cottages and villages set off against one another. There are elderly men walking with sticks along the mountain path to view the waterfall, women carrying children asking for directions outside the yard fences, and four men sitting on the floor chatting and drinking. It is an ordinary rural landscape reflecting a quiet pastoral life.
