The Genshin Impact 3.0 update is now live, and players can now go to Sumeru, which is the game’s newest major area. Deep in the jungles of the area, there are more than a few secrets to find and puzzles to solve. When you solve this puzzle in Mawtiyima Forest, the Under the Umbrella’s Shade Domain will be unlocked. What you need to know is listed below.
How to Unlock the Mawtiyima Forest Domain
To figure out how to solve this puzzle, you’ll need to turn on each elemental pillar that surrounds the Domain. If you don’t have a Dendro character like Tighnari or Collei, you can still use Dendrograna by interacting with a nearby Dendrogranum plant. Use these green sprites to light up the pillars with any character.
They will follow aimed bow shots or charged attacks with a Dendro attack for a short time. Here are some pictures of the Dendrogranum plant:

There are five elemental pillars, and they need to be lit up in a certain order. One of them is hidden by a big stone that you can only break with a Dendrograna and one of your charged or aimed attacks. The stone has a glowing green mark on it, so it’s hard to miss. Take care of that first before starting the puzzle.
At the bottom of each column is a symbol carved into the ground. Look for the only glowing symbol and press the button next to it. Each symbol will point to the next pillar that needs to be lit up, so keep using the Dendrograna to light them up until all of the pillars are glowing green with Dendro energy, like in the picture above. Here’s how the symbols for the pillars will look:

Once the puzzle is solved, a short cutscene will show the Under the Umbrella’s Shade Domain rising from the ground. Walk up to the door and interact with it to make a new teleport point that can be used again and again. You’ll also get a Common Chest in front of the Domain as a reward for your hard work.
