Whirling Dervishes
The Whirling Dervish ceremony has been performed for nearly 800 years. This ritual has become a cultural icon of Türkiye’s incredibly diverse country.
The Whirling Dervishes were led by Mevlana Celaleddin, more commonly referred to as Rumi in the West. The dancer receives with one hand raised to the Creator and gives the blessing to the Creation with the other hand pointing down toward the ground.
