Water Margin tells the story of 108 heroes who join the outlaws on Mount Liang.
Tips
culture
In the novel the outlaws gather at 梁山泊, the marsh around the mountain; the hill itself is in today's 梁山县, Shandong. 逼上梁山 'driven up Mount Liang' means being forced into revolt or into a desperate step.
mistakes
Not to be confused with 梁山伯, hero of the Butterfly Lovers legend, whose surname is 梁, or with 凉山 in Sichuan, home of the Yi people, which sounds the same.
