Live music and sema ceremony came across as authentic and cincere. Having read about Rumi I found it a touching experience. Don't expect a show, it is a ceremony. Tasteful exhibition at the foyer. I would recommend it for anyone interested in some backgrounds of Sufi religion and tradition.

A great experience! This is not just a "show" this is a cultural experience. I suggest to arrive early to read and learn about the religion, culture and Dervish dance and see the incredible object they have in display. Cannot take pictures hence no pictures in this review.

    • Explore the exhibition showcasing dervish clothing, instruments, historic books, hyperrealist statues, and interactive Rumi poems.

    • Watch the UNESCO-recognized Mevlevi ritual that traces the dervishes’ spiritual journey toward divine love.
