The Whirling Dervishes ceremony is a traditional Sufi practice. The dervishes, dressed in white, spin in a rhythmic dance that symbolises their journey towards spiritual enlightenment. Held at the Hodjapasha Cultural Complex, a converted 16th-century steam bath turned arts centre, settle in for an evening of entertainment set in a historic Ottoman-era building. The complex also offers an informative exhibition on Sufism and the Whirling Dervishes, providing insight into its history.
