Description

In fact, when looked more deeply, it is the ritual of the Mevlevi dervishes. It can be summarized as the ritual they perform by opening their arms to both sides, turning their right palm to the sky and turning their left palm to the earth, and taking them from God and giving them to the people, accompanied by instruments such as the Ney. (Reed Flute) Here, music is an instrument that helps meditation. *This a real dervish ceremony, not touristic show *The dervishes are real and musicians are live *The historical building is exotic and unique syrup is complimentery. *Evening time Light show about the formations of Cappadocia. * Transfer from hotel to Dervish House and back to hotel (13km from Goreme) * The show starts at 18.00 .
