Did you know? Beyond its fame, Liuhe Pagoda hides a stunning secret—precious Southern Song Dynasty caisson ceilings inside the core chambers of the 2nd to 4th floors. While the paintings were restored, the original dougong and brick-wood structures remain untouched, offering a rare glimpse into history.

After the destruction of Ganlu Temple, only five Southern Song wooden structures survive today, making Liuhe Pagoda‘s preserved wooden elements truly remarkable and second only to Tang Dynasty buildings in rarity. 🏯💎

Hangzhou's Rare Species - Issue 7: Monotropastrum humile

In this issue, we introduce Monotropastrum humile, also known as the Pinecone False Sand Orchid. This perennial, non-photosynthetic herb belongs to the Ericaceae family and the Monotropastrum genus.

Habitat: Monotropastrum humile thrives in the shaded areas of montane forests at altitudes of 900 to 3100 meters. It prefers sandy, nutrient-poor soil and grows in cool, moist environments under the forest canopy, avoiding direct sunlight.

Ecological Significance: As a mycoheterotrophic plant, Monotropastrum humile relies on a symbiotic relationship with fungi to obtain nutrients. It plays a vital role in maintaining soil fungal balance and contributes to nutrient cycling in its ecosystem. Additionally, it is used in traditional medicine for treating chronic coughs, adding both ecological and cultural value.
