BESTI had a great time watching it. It's worth seeing because it's a local culture!
Don't miss the Mevlevi Sema Ceremony in Istanbul!
The Sema Ceremony is a Sufi ceremony, a mystical branch of Islam. It's a fascinating spectacle with its elaborate dances, where dancers in traditional attire spin around and around. This constant spinning allows them to transcend and connect with God. With a history spanning 800 years, it has become a traditional Turkish dance performed for audiences.

Experience the Dynamic and Intense Mevlevi Sema Ceremony
Enjoy the traditional Dervish performance in Istanbul for an hour at the Hodjapasha Culture Center in the heart of Istanbul. This performance boasts an 800-year history and is said to express a spiritual journey to God through dance. Therefore, the performance concludes with prayers for all prophets, martyrs, the souls of believers, and national salvation. Because it contains religious meaning and is part of Turkish history, it is highly recommended to watch it during your trip.

A Brief Story of the Sema Ceremony

The Sema Ceremony is a religious ritual of the Sufi order aimed at communicating with God. When the dance begins, they continuously spin in one place for 30-40 minutes. This painful movement is the process by which the dancer enters the world of death to reach a state of spiritual communion with God, and in it, they experience ecstasy in communion with God.
