The story

Sayri Guli Lola Sughd Regional Round in Khujand/Sughd

Sayri Guli Lola, the Tulip Promenade, is a Tajik spring festival celebrating the wild tulips native to the country's valleys, with a regional round staged in Khujand and other Sughd province cities each April as the flowers come into bloom.

Tajikistan sits within the broader region botanists consider the wild tulip's original homeland, and for centuries the arrival of these flowers across the country's mountain valleys has marked the true start of spring for Tajik communities, well before Navruz became the dominant modern spring holiday.
