    The Dervishes are Sufi Muslims who are famous by their extreme lifestyle that includes poverty and austerity. These elements are necessary for them in order to accomplish their ultimate life goal which is to desert their ego. Mysticism and spirituality are some of the features characterizing Dervishes and their ceremony.The Pamukkale Dervishes Ceremony lasts for approximately one hour. The show is presenting the stages that Dervishes implement in order to reach God, which is their ultimate value in life. The show starts with a prayer and then the master Dervish indicates the places that Dervishes should take. Once the Dervishes take their positions, the Circling of Veled starts and this dance is a symbolization of the resurrection from the grave.The Dervishes’ costume is featuring some symbolization as well. The cloak shows the grave and the hat symbolized the gravestone.

I always wanted to see this traditional Türkish dance and finally made my dream came true. It’s nice to been there once to see it by yourself! Thank you again to Yusuf, the great yet professional staff from Excursion Mania to help me arranged this great show. We actually was going to view it by a night before but they were out of electricity. Yusuf had tried to help me to solve the pick up problem ASAP. I think it’s very important to have an agent which he could be reached all the time when you are in the situation. He even apologized to me but I told him not to, because things happened and it wasn’t his fault anyway. He helped us solved the problem right away and we got picked up by the next day instead. I like how the person sang on that evening which it was so relaxing, soothing that my son fell asleep right before the show!???? But that’s alright, under 12 is free and he could view through my videos later.????. Nice experience and highly recommended. Ppl were nice over there to provide their traditional drink right after the show, and you got the chance to view their souvenir products but you don’t have to buy if you don’t want to. ????????????????????????????????????(PS. You won’t allow to film during their performance BUT they’ll allowed you to film right after the show with the lights on.)
