Although Ganoderma lucidum is a natural fungus, it has formed a unique Ganoderma lucidum culture in the history of China. In ancient times, the medical level was limited. Ganoderma lucidum had magical effects on human health, and it was rare, which made the rulers become the first choice users of Ganoderma lucidum, so people worshipped Ganoderma lucidum more. People's desire for health gradually makes Ganoderma lucidum become the embodiment of "fairy grass", health and auspiciousness in people's minds.

The shape and natural lines of Ganoderma lucidum are particularly delicate in the eyes of artists. People use Ganoderma lucidum as the prototype to create mascots and ornaments, which have gradually evolved into "Ruyi" in art, instead of the rare real Ganoderma lucidum, which is used as a high-level display of court and aristocratic officials, or as a token of the emperor's choosing a concubine and betrothal, and uses its shape or pattern in people's lives, appearing in architectural decoration, clothing and daily utensils, especially in meticulous painting. In addition to dragons, the huabiao in Tiananmen Square is also carved with auspicious clouds in the shape of Ganoderma lucidum. Ganoderma lucidum symbolizes auspiciousness, health and longevity, and is also integrated into Chinese customs, such as matching amulets (longevity locks, matching jade, etc. ) Take the Ganoderma lucidum pattern, give gifts, and connect the dragon and phoenix with Ganoderma lucidum at the wedding. Ganoderma lucidum has been integrated into people's lives.
