Whirling Dervish Show in Pamukkale

If you're in Pamukkale, we recommend attending a whirling dervish show, an important spiritual ceremony in Turkish culture.

Whirling Dervish Show

A whirling dervish show is essential for experiencing Turkey's rich culture. This traditional dance, known as the Dervish dance, is performed by men dressed in white who spin continuously as part of the Order of Mevlevi, a key group in Sufism. The ceremony symbolizes the dancer's quest to engage with Allah.

Over 700 years old, the Whirling Dervish dance is performed with a musical soundtrack, lasting for 1 hour. The venue for this performance is an old medieval dwelling that once hosted merchants arriving in Pamukkale.

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