Lotus Festival (Persian: Jashn-e Nilupar) is a Iranian festival that is held on the sixth day of July. The lotus flower is also a symbol of the goddess Anahita. Holding this celebration at this time was probably based on the blooming of lotus flowers at the beginning of summer. Today, this celebration is still held in Farahan, Mahalat, Khomein, and Marlik areas of Tehran under the title of the first Tovstoni (first summer) celebration.
