    Too small. Only can read article:

    山高水远 - as high as mountains and as far as (river)water runs.
    river didn't show in words

    usually means very far distance
    sometimes means people walk or travel for a long distance(far way from home) while they are missing their home and family so much

    Chinese idiom sometimes very hard to translate, and are often used in different situations and occasions, and the meanings expressed vary widely.
    Especially those with history provenances.
