Introduction to the Money Tree: The largest money tree in Sichuan stands next to the Palace of King Yu and is said to have been planted by Yu the Great. During the fruit-hanging season in summer and autumn, bunches of fruits that look like copper coins are hung on the trees. Seeing that it was covered in money, no one could shake it off. Legend has it that only those who sincerely worship the Buddha but are poor and in urgent need of relief can shake money from the tree and turn it into real money.
