Attar commemoration on April 14th

Attar Nishabouri was a highly revered 12th-century philosopher and mystic, who is more known both in and outside Iran for his instinctive taste and power of poetry. He was also a master of traditional Iranian medicine; during his lifetime in Iran, herbal drugs were popular. 
The tomb of this famous poet is located in Neyshabour, near the tomb of Omar Khayyam. This structure is octagonal in shape with a tile worked onion shaped dome. 
Every year on April 14th, ceremonials in commemoration of Attar Neishabouri take place all around Iran.
