WHY KONYA?

One of Turkey's oldest continuously-inhabited cities, Konya is known as the "Home of the Whirling Dervishes". Konya's golden age was in the 12th and 13th centuries when it was the capital of the Seljuk Sultanate of Rum. Moreover, Sema whirling dervish ceremonies take place at the Mevlana Cultural Center, east of the museum. Believe it or not, the city's renown derives from the nearby ruins of Catal Huyuk and, more so, from the shrine of Rumi, the great Sufi poet (1207-1273). As a matter of fact, the most famous building around here is the Green Mausoleum of Mevlana Celaleddin Rumi, the former dervish seminary, attached to the mausoleum, is now a museum, devoted to Rumi's works.
