This was a really interesting and atmospheric event, you can learn more about the impressive religious Turkish traditions. Recommend this if you want to research something new about musleum culture

I really enjoyed the show, Mr. Ataberk helped me a lot with the location, he is very supportive and friendly. Also, this place and the Turkish Cultural Heritage Celestial Dervish Show are magnificent.
