- Guilty Chinese Scholartree
The Guilty Chinese Scholartree (zh-cp|c=罪槐|p=Zuìhuái), a specimen of Pagoda Tree ("Styphnolobium japonicum") located in Beijing's Jingshan park, is a famous tree and national landmark on which the last Ming Chongzhen Emperor hanged himself after a group of peasants (led by Li Zicheng) successfully stormed the Forbidden City in 1644.
The tree was uprooted during the Cultural Revolution and the present one that stands in its place is a replica.
