Mirror Pool, Tai Po 大埔照鏡潭

這個三叠潭的第一叠是「龍潭」;「照鏡孔」是第二叠,直徑1米,水流穿越向下,匯成下面的水潭,再從懸崖翻下為巨瀑。由上面下望,狀如照鏡,配合「新娘」梳洗照鏡的傳說,遂得其名。This is a series of three successive pools. The first tier is called Dragon Pool. Mirror Hollow, the second pool of the series, is 1 m in diameter. Water flows right through the hollow to form a pool, before rushing down the cliff as a great waterfall. Gazing down, the water looks just like a mirror. The name Mirror Pool comes from the folk legend about an ill-fated bride dressing herself up in front o the mirror.
