EMAV hosts an authentic weekly Mevlevi Sema ceremony where dervishes spin rhythmically in circles to live music and hymns based on Rumi's works, a ritual designed to bring participants closer to God through precise, symbolic movements. Visitors observe a genuine spiritual practice that takes place regardless of tourist presence, with only a handful of seats reserved while the majority of the audience consists of congregation members.
