Stories and legends of Angelica dahurica

It is said that when Su Shi was the mayor of Hangzhou, he had a deep relationship with an old monk in Santaishan temple and often discussed poetry together. On one occasion, the two talked so much that they didn't enjoy themselves until late at night. At that time, it was already early autumn, and the night was as cold as water. Su Dongpo suffered a cold on his way home from the temple on the mountain, and the next day he felt headache and stuffy nose. When the old monk heard this, he asked someone to bring a bag of medicinal herbs, saying that it was fried soup to take, and the effect was excellent.

Su Dongpo recovered from the illness after taking it, so he went up the mountain to thank the old monk and wanted to find out what kind of "panacea" it was. Only after asking did he know that it was traditional Chinese medicine Angelica dahurica, a genuine herbal medicine produced in Hangzhou, hence the name "Hangzhou Baizhi", also known as "fragrant Angelica dahurica" because of its fragrant smell.
