Held at the Hodjapasha Cultural Center, a beautifully restored historic building, this experience combines history, culture, and spirituality in a refined setting.
The Sema ritual is not a dance performance but a deeply symbolic spiritual practice representing a journey of inner transformation and devotion. Accompanied by live Sufi music, the ceremony reflects themes of harmony, balance, and connection. The precise movements of the dervishes create a calm and immersive atmosphere, making this experience both visually captivating and spiritually meaningful.
