Wayi Stone is a unique stone clamped among the big stones on Huaguo Mountain. It does not rely on the heaven and cannot get down to earth. It was fabled that the stone was left over by nature when Lady Wa, who was a fairy in the ancient Chinese legend, built up the stone.
Above the stone was the half pebble. It was said that another half collapsed down into the mountain when Sun Wukong, a monkey hero in the novel Monkey King, was born.
