It is believed that Dervishes have superpowers and can do miracles because they are close to God with their lifestyle. Cappadocia Dervishes Ceremony includes a 1-hour show of Mevlevi Sema Ceremony. This particular ceremony is a symbolic expression of the stages that Dervishes are passing through in order to reach God.

After the prayer, a solo follows just before the impressive show. Then, the head Dervish indicates the places where the Dervishes should go and then the infamous Circling of Veled begins.

In what regards the clothes of the Dervishes, hidden meanings are also in place. The cloak symbolizes the grave and the hat represents the gravestone.
