Who are the Whirling Dervishes? - Episode 8 - Turkey

In Episode 8 of our road trip through Turkey we travel to the city of Konya where the Whirling Dervishes originated (they are followers of the 13th century Persian poet Rumi). In this video we see the performance of a Sema. The Sema is a dance where members of the Mevlevia spin and pray at the same time. Watch as we witness these men pray and dance as a part of their religion.
