Galata Mevlevihanesi Müzesi Review

Istanbul is a must-pass place for Turkish tourism. In fact, the city is quite good. Some plans are much stronger than domestic ones. The currency here is mainly US dollars and lira. The overall consumption is not cheap.

Up on Galata, you can see Golden Point Bay on the right, Bosphorus on the left, and dinner on the top of the tower.

这是个很有历史感的国度，可惜我不懂土耳其文字

Known as the Galata Mevlevi Museum, this is an old Sufi Dervish lodge founded in the 15th century. It includes a complex with courtyard, cemetery, and the monastery, now converted into a museum of Sufism. This is one of the only places in Turkey where you can learn about the monastic order, with clothing and artifacts of the Sufi order on display. The most interesting sight is the whirling Dervish ceremony that is sometimes held here.

The first Mawlawi House in Istanbul built in the 15th century and a museum today, this is the place to see the whirling dervishes and learn about the Sufi traditions if you do not have the means to go to Konya, to the tomb of Rumi.
