Konya - Mevlana Museum – The Heart of Sufism

The Mevlana Museum is located in the heart of Konya, Türkiye.
It’s very easy to find, as it’s one of the city’s most famous landmarks, just a short walk from the city center and well-marked on all local maps.

The Mevlana Museum, once a dervish lodge, is now a sacred site that holds the tomb of Jalaluddin Rumi — the founder of the Mevlevi Sufi order, known for the whirling dervishes.

Sufism is a spiritual path that focuses on love, inner peace, and a deep connection with God.
Mevlana Jalaluddin Rumi was a famous Sufi poet and teacher whose words about love and unity still inspire people around the world.
His followers, known as whirling dervishes, use music and dance as a form of spiritual devotion.

💫 Inside the museum you’ll find:
– Rumi’s beautifully adorned tomb
– Ancient manuscripts and musical instruments
– Dervish clothing and symbolic artifacts
– A peaceful courtyard filled with history and devotion

Rumi’s message of love, tolerance, and unity continues to inspire millions across the globe.
Must-visit for anyone seeking history, spirituality, or the poetry of the soul.

“Come, come, whoever you are…” – Rumi
