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.

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.
    • Enjoy an immersive Sema ceremony featuring a 5-min intro video, 10-min Sufi concert, and the full 45-min whirling ritual.

    • 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.

    • Fun fact: The Sema’s circular motion symbolizes the dervish’s path from the earthly world toward spiritual “perfection.”

    • 1-hour Whirling Dervish show

    • Entry to HodjaPasha Culture Center

    • Entry to the exhibition with dervish artifacts

  • 您可以在体验开始前24 小时内取消这些门票,并获得全额退款。

    Sema Ceremony

    The Sema is the sacred ritual of the Mevlevi Order, symbolizing a dervish’s spiritual ascent toward “perfection” through devotion, music, and dance. Recognized by UNESCO, it blends centuries-old tradition with deeply symbolic choreography and live Sufi compositions.

    • Sufi Music Concert (10 min): Performed live with traditional instruments, this segment sets the spiritual tone and introduces key motifs of Mevlevi music.

    • Whirling Ritual (45 min): The main ceremony where dervishes rotate in continuous motion, representing the journey from the earthly realm to divine love.
