Cappadocia Whirling Dervish Show

Celaleddin Rumi, widely known as Rumi, was a 13th-century philosopher, religious figure, and poet whose teachings continue to inspire and resonate with people across the globe. His seminal work, the Masnavi, remains a cherished and influential piece of literature to this day.

The dance show you described portrays the ritual practices associated with Rumi and his followers, involving elements of meditation and an inward journey to grasp concepts of reality and love. This immersive experience takes place at the 13th-century Saruhan Caravanserai, where participants are transported by car to witness the mesmerizing religious dance show for nearly an hour. The serene and enchanting atmosphere of the caravanserai provides a unique opportunity for introspection and finding inner peace.
