About Konya Mevlana and Faith

A highly meaningful and peaceful two-day spiritual discovery route awaits you in Konya, known as the spiritual capital of Anatolia, where you will witness thousands of years of faith history. Bringing together the religious beliefs and spiritual quests of different civilizations, this special program offers a unique opportunity for travelers wanting to feel the roots of the philosophy of tolerance deeply in its place. Easily visited throughout the year with the unique beauties of every season, this intensive trip is an ideal, satisfying alternative for those wanting to rest their souls by embarking on an inner journey and passionate history enthusiasts who love examining humanity's evolution of faith through ancient ruins.

We start the first day of our journey full of faith and history by visiting Batı Cephesi Karargahı Müzesi, where we will deeply feel the sacrifices during the National Struggle years, paying our respects to the heroes of our recent history. We then turn our route to the peaceful view of nature, the vast Beyşehir Gölü, throwing off our fatigue in the tranquility of the water and listening to the echoes of the past among the silent ruins of the historical ancient city of Misthia located on the lakeshore. Following this relaxing and culturally rich first day, we prepare ourselves for Konya's famous spiritual atmosphere, embracing a deep serenity.

On the final day of this meaningful route, we visit the Mevlana Müzesi, accepted as the center of tolerance and love all over the world and fascinating with its architecture, witnessing the great thinker's philosophy closely with awe. Immediately after, we find an opportunity for deep spiritual rest at Mecma’ül-Bahreyn, a historical symbol of different spiritual paths and mystical teachings, breathing in the peace of this mystical environment. Finally, changing our route alongside the faith tour to see the region's most deep-rooted past, we move to the fascinating Çatalhöyük Örenyeri, one of the oldest known settlements in human history, discovering primitive belief systems of thousands of years ago on site and completing this discovery adventure with a cultural feast.
