If you're in Pamukkale, we recommend attending a whirling dervish show. Witness a ceremony significant in Turkish culture.

Whirling Dervish Show

In Turkey, a whirling dervish show is a vital cultural experience. This is the Dervish dance, a traditional practice of the Order of Mevlevi, known in Sufism. It is not just a performance; it represents the soul's journey to connect with Allah.

The Whirling Dervish dance is over 700 years old. Participants spin in circles, reaching a state of ecstasy accompanied by a musical soundtrack.

For 1 hour, you will experience this beautiful ceremony in a historic building that once served as a medieval dwelling for traders in Pamukkale.

During the show, you will also enjoy sherbet, a traditional drink made of fruit, herbs, and flower petals.
