The Elegant Snegurochka Statue puzzle in Genshin Impact asks Travelers to rotate two statues so that each faces the painting described by its accompanying riddle. Getting both orientations right completes the Misaligned Statues quest and rewards you with an Exquisite Chest. The puzzle is found on the second floor of the House of Hesperides.
Where to Find the Snegurochka Statue Puzzle
The two Elegant Snegurochka Statues are located on F2 of the House of Hesperides.
Access to this part of the Mountain Mansion becomes available after obtaining the Invitation to the “Ritual” before the Hesperides of Love and Hate World quest.
Once you find the statues, inspect their notes before rotating them. Each riddle describes a specific type of forest, and matching that description to a nearby painting provides the solution.
How to Solve the Misaligned Statues Quest
Both statues need to face the correct artwork. The two paintings you’re looking for depict green pine trees and white birch trees.
Snegurochka Statue With the Green Pines Riddle
One statue’s note describes Snegurochka entering the depths of a forest and dwelling among green pines.
The clue is literal. Find the painting depicting pine trees on the wall, then interact with the corresponding statue and select Rotate.
The statue will begin turning automatically. Once it faces the pine-tree painting, select Stop.
Timing matters because the statue doesn’t automatically lock into the correct orientation. If you allow it to continue rotating, you’ll need to wait for it to make another turn before stopping it in the right position.
Snegurochka Statue With the White Birches Riddle
The second note follows a similar format but mentions Snegurochka standing among white birches.
For this statue, look for the white-birch painting positioned on the floor near the guardrail. Start rotating the statue and stop it when it directly faces that painting.
With one statue pointing toward the green pines and the other toward the white birches, the puzzle will register as complete.
Elegant Snegurochka Statue Puzzle Rewards
Correctly positioning both statues completes Misaligned Statues and causes an Exquisite Chest to appear.
Opening it provides the usual selection of chest rewards, including Primogems, Adventure EXP, and character or weapon progression materials.
More Puzzles in the House of Hesperides
Misaligned Statues is only one of several optional puzzles hidden throughout the House of Hesperides. Travelers exploring the Mountain Mansion can also encounter challenges involving the Mountain Paintings in the Bedroom, seating arrangements in the VIP area, and Cryo Monuments hidden inside a secret ceiling chamber.
These activities offer different rewards, ranging from Exquisite and Precious Chests to collectible paintings. Using the Eye of Graeae to view the Mountain Mansion map can help you track down its remaining challenges and avoid leaving the House of Hesperides before you’ve uncovered all of its secrets.
