For over 1,500 years, Song County in Luoyang has quietly nurtured China's herbal medicine legacy. This Luoyang treasure trove boasts 1,300 medicinal plant varieties, earning its title as the undisputed "Kingdom of Chinese Herbal Medicine." Today, ancient wisdom is fueling a modern renaissance.
Vast herb farms spanning 666+ hectares now employ smart agriculture to produce premium ingredients. This green revolution has attracted pharmaceutical innovators transforming local plants into cutting-edge medicines and luxury skincare. Farmers prosper as their harvests supply both traditional remedies and modern laboratories.
But Song County's magic extends beyond medicine. Visitors explore fragrant herb fields, experience rejuvenating TCM therapies, and discover creative souvenirs like herbal sachets and botanical scarves. What began as traditional farmland has blossomed into a thriving billion-dollar ecosystem - where healing traditions meet contemporary innovation, and every leaf tells a story of cultural heritage.
