Istanbul Whirling Dervish Ceremony, en mystisk Sufi upplevelse
Beskrivning
Den virvlande Dervish-ceremonin i Istanbul är en fascinerande och fängslande andlig övning som har pågått i århundraden. Det är en uråldrig sufiritual som har sitt ursprung på 1200-talet med grundandet av Mevlevi-orden av den persiske poeten Rumi. Ceremonin äger rum i en mystisk miljö, vanligtvis i en vacker och utsmyckad sal känd som en tekke. Tekken är prydd med mattor, ljus och andra symboliska föremål som sätter stämningen för evenemanget. Publiken samlas i förväntan, ivriga att bevittna den djupa och mystiska upplevelse som är på väg att utvecklas. De virvlande dervisherna, även kända som semazen, är klädda i traditionella vita dräkter, som symboliserar renhet och avskildhet från materiella tillhörigheter. De bär höga filthattar som kallas sikkes, som representerar egots gravstenar, som de tar bort innan de utför dansen. Dervischerna går in i hallen i en procession och skapar en eterisk atmosfär när de sakta tar sina platser.

An incredibly spiritual and moving experience. I highly recommend. This is not a performance, but a spiritual journey.
Dear Guest, Thank you for sharing such a heartfelt reflection. We’re truly glad the experience felt like a meaningful spiritual journey and left such a lasting impression. Your recommendation means a lot to us 😊 Kind regards 🧿 Tourmania Team
An incredibly spiritual and moving experience. I highly recommend. This is not a performance, but a spiritual journey.
Not worth the money. Most of the performance was flute music and chanting with some twirling at the end…and after a couple minutes of twirling that was enough for us.
Dear Guest We’re sorry the performance did not meet your expectations. The music and chanting are part of this traditional and relaxing spiritual experience, with the whirling ceremony as its central moment. We appreciate you sharing your honest feedback. Kind Regards Tourmania Teams
I did not know much about this until I experienced it. It was a great learning experience while in Istanbul!
What an experience ! The ambience of the atmosphere was wonderful. The lighting and verses that go along with the whirling dervish show were a nice touch
Dear Guest, what a beautiful way to describe it! 🌀 We're so glad the lighting and the verses added that extra layer of depth to the ceremony. The Whirling Dervish experience truly is unlike anything else. We hope to welcome you back for another spiritual and mesmerising evening very soon! Kind regards 🧿 Tourmania Team
Beautiful experience that made me realise how spiritual the dance is and reason for it.Wonderful and excellent location
Dear Guest, thank you for these beautiful words! 🌀 It's truly special when the Whirling Dervish ceremony touches you on a deeper level and reveals its spiritual meaning. That connection is exactly what makes this experience so unique. We hope to welcome you back again soon! Kind regards 🧿 Tourmania Team
It is something personal, you need to experience it for yourself. This was my second time. You should try it.
Dear Guest, thank you for the thoughtful words! 😊 We couldn't agree more, some experiences simply have to be lived firsthand. The fact that this was your second time means the world to us! We hope to welcome you back for a third time very soon! Kind regards 🧿 Tourmania Team
WOW. WOW. WOW! What an AMAZING experience seeing the Whirling Dervishes was! I highly recommend this experience on every level - cultural, spiritual, or even just as a curious tourist. The fact that it was a full Whirling Dervish Ceremony (running approx. an hour) with singing, live musicians, and probably a good 45-minutes out outstanding whirling dervish movement (I hesitate to call it 'dancing,' because it's not - it's so much more meaningful and deeper than that) by 5 highly trained and professional Dervishes made for an evening we will never forget, and will absolutely return back to do again. As the Dervishes enter their trances, you can't help but get caught up in the moment. It's very hypnotizing and you're absolutely caught up in the moment. And the venue is PERFECT for this - it's authentic, unique, and every single seat has an amazing view. What an incredible evening. BTW, Tourmania did a wonderful job putting this experience together. They were awesome at answering any questions I had quickly, and made the experience so enjoyable. When you're in a new city seeing an event, you really want to be informed and kept in the loop of every detail, and they did just that. (PS - When you go, read the posters in the lobby area to get a little background on why the Dervishes whirl, and what the ceremony is about. It'll heighten your experience tenfold.)
Dear Guest, What a beautifully written review, thank you so much! Your description of the ceremony is truly moving and we're so glad it left such a profound impression. The tip about reading the lobby posters is wonderful advice for future guests. Really glad Tourmania's communication made everything so seamless. Hope to welcome you back again someday! Kind regards 🧿 Tourmania Team
It was a very meditative experience - highly recommended
Liebe/r Gast, Vielen Dank! Ein meditatives Erlebnis, das ist eine wunderschöne Beschreibung. Wir freuen uns, dass es Ihnen so gut gefallen hat und hoffen, Sie bald wiederzusehen! Herzliche Grüße 🧿 Tourmania Team
Going to see the whirling dervish was an education. The map was very helpful to find the location. The event was approximately one hour in duration. The waiting area had many explanations about the people and the commitment required to participate. There was music and ceremonial carpets laid out for the dancers. Well worth the time to see such dedication to their religion. I left with a better understanding of the significance of the dance.
Dear Guest, Thank you for this thoughtful review! The Whirling Dervish ceremony really is a deeply educational and moving experience and we're so glad you left with a greater understanding of its significance. Really glad the waiting area displays added that extra layer of context. Hope to welcome you back again someday! Kind regards 🧿 Tourmania Team
