All Genshin Impact characters can be upgraded to become more powerful over time, a process that is called Ascension in the game. Naturally, this improvement doesn’t come for free and you are required to collect lots of in-game resources that are specific to each character. Nahida, the Dendro Archon, is returning to Genshin Impact’s banners in the 4.4 update and should definitely be very high on your priority list, in case you haven’t pulled her yet. And even if you have, her C1 and C2 are very powerful, so you may even want to pull her for additional Constellations.

If you’re still among the Nahida-wanters and are determined to be a Nahida-haver once 4.4 hits, it’s a great idea to prepare accordingly and farm all the materials required to ascend her. That’s especially important for one required ingredient: the Kalpalata Lotus.

These plants are only found in specific areas in Sumeru and are kind of annoying to get. There also aren't that many of them, so starting early to have gathered enough in time for Nahida’s arrival would be prudent.

We’ve got all Kalpalata Lotus locations in Genshin Impact noted down here for you, showing you the best farming route for Nahida’s material.

Kalpalata Lotuses are a bit hard to spot and even tougher to collect, if you don’t already have Nahida on your roster – her Elemental Skill comes in really handy to farm those flowers. They grow on cliffsides, often near waterfalls, which makes them easy to miss if your eyes are not wandering around the screen constantly. You’ll also need to climb around a lot to get to them.

We’re starting our Kalpalata Lotus farming route in the southwest of Sumeru. Use the waypoint west of the Apam Woods to get the flowers growing on the plateau’s sides and then glide north to Yasna Monument to get the next bunch. Then teleport to the Apam Woods to get the cluster growing there.

Working our way eastwards, the waypoint south of Vimara Village is our next stop. Once again you’ll need to do some awkward climbing to get the material, but that’s just how it is. The point on Devantaka Mountain is going to net you a few Lotuses as well in its nearest vicinity.

Moving to the northwest now, you should first teleport to the waypoint west of Sumeru City, gliding to the waterfall leading down to the valley. You can teleport or simply make your way to the next station on foot, as it’s not a super long way and you may even meet some mushroom beasts – their materials are also needed for Nahida’s ascension. The next stage is a bit awkward, as you’ll have to teleport to that waypoint two times (going north and east afterwards, respectively), but especially the glide eastwards over the river will net you a lot of Lotuses.

Next, teleport to the Statue of the Seven near Gandharva Ville and glide down to the waterfall there. The last station is Mawtiyima Forest, where you can follow the cliffs to collect your final bunch of Kalpalata Lotuses before you have to wait for them to regrow.
