How to do the luhua landscape quest: A complete guide to completing the Luhua landscape quest successfully

The Luhua Landscape quest in Genshin Impact is a world quest located near Luhua Pool in the Liyue region. To begin the quest, find the NPC named Vermeer, an artist standing by the Luhua Pool’s stone pillars. He’ll ask for your help locating his lost paintbrushes and paints. Here’s a quick step-by-step guide to complete the quest efficiently:

1. Locate Vermeer: Speak with the artist NPC near Luhua Pool’s prominent stone pillars to receive the quest.
2. Find the Paint Brushes and Paints:
3. First Paintbrush & Paint: Head to the west side of Luhua Pool’s northern area, near some rocks and a small broken wooden structure.
4. Second Paintbrush & Paint: Go southeast of Vermeer’s location, close to some small ruins and a bush. Both spots will have quest markers to help you navigate.
5. Return the Items to Vermeer: Give Vermeer his lost items. He’ll then ask you to inspect the strange stone statues nearby.
6. Activate the Statues:
7. You need to use a Geo character (like Ningguang or the Traveler’s Geo element) to activate the two glowing stone statues next to the locked gate.
8. Obtain the Strange Jade Plates: After activating the statues, a new objective will appear. Use your Elemental Sight to track them down. There are three required jade plates, each marked on your map within the Luhua Pool vicinity.
9. Unlock the Treasure: Once all plates are found and activated, return to the middle and use the provided key to unlock the mechanism. This unlocks the gate and completes the quest, rewarding you with Primogems, Adventure EXP, and other loot.

As a designer, I see quests like Luhua Landscape as illustrative of how environmental storytelling and spatial puzzles can enhance player immersion. Each element—the placement of statues, hidden items, and dramatic ruins—creates opportunities for creative exploration. If you’re inspired by such artistic landscapes and want to recreate these virtual spaces in real life, consider experimenting with a room’s layout using digital design tools for a hands-on approach to environmental creativity.

Tips 1:

Bring a Geo character before heading to the statues, so you don't need to teleport out and back. Use Elemental Sight frequently to locate the jade plates quickly. Mark quest-related points on your map for easier navigation. Enjoy the scenic views—Luhua Pool is one of Liyue’s most picturesque sites!
