Genshin Impact: Where to find Nilotpala Lotus (Updated November 2022)

Last Updated on: 19th November 2022, 11:49 pm

Sumeru is home of the Dendro Archon Lesser Lord Kusanali. As such, it is a place where several interesting plants thrive. One of them is the Nilotpala Lotus.

Nilotpala Lotus is interesting because it looks different depending on the time of day. At daytime, it appears to be closed, but at nighttime, it blooms with flowers that are even compared to the bright moon. Because of this, it is also called the Lunar Lotus.

“Growing in the forest wetlands, these plants only bloom at night with flowers as bright as the moon.”

– Nilotpala Lotus description

Look no further if you’re wondering where you can find a few of these plants. We’ll also tell you its uses.

Nilotpala Lotus locations and recommended farming areas in Genshin Impact

Nilotpala Lotus is a Local Specialty in Sumeru, meaning it can only be found in the region. You can find some of these plants near the region’s lakes and river banks. As of writing, no in-game shops sell this Local Specialty, nor are there any known NPCs who will give you some for free.

Below are the locations of this Local Specialty all over Sumeru:

While there are relatively a lot of Nilotpala Lotus all over Sumeru, the areas with the most of these plants are around Sumeru City. These include the area north of the city and Chinvat Ravine. Check out the map below for your reference:

In case you only need a few of these plants, the river banks south of Vimara Village and Devantaka Mountain are notable quick farming locations. The Nilotpala Lotus in both areas is so close together that they won’t require so much moving around. In these areas, it would be impossible for you to miss them.
