Dances of Colours: Whirling Dervishes Istanbul & Turkish Folk Dances

by ares19a

We wanted to see a folk dance and our hotel recommended a program put on by a local student dance troop. I don't remember the exact cost of admission, but it was very reasonable. They presented dances from all over the region including a Whirling Dervishes Ceremony. Great experience.Name of the organisation is "Dances of Colours" and it also offers Sufi Music Concert & Whirling Dervishes Ceremony and also lots of different type of Turkish Folk Dance in a modern theatre.It was just perfect to see both Dervish Dance and Turkish Folk Dances in one show.

Riddim: Crazy Taksim nights

by love4hiphop

If you love hop-hop, being with other foreigners, having a great DJ, and the ability to dance all night long, then you need to go to Riddim! I make it my weekly pilgrimage every Friday night to go there. It has the best hip-hop music in Istanbul and is up to date with all of the new songs from America. It is filled with foreign professional basketball players and lots of beautiful people! Believe me, there is no dress code! Girls come in with skirts up to their butts or even sports bras and baggy pants sometimes. It is very urban.

Istiklal Caddessi: Chillout places!

by June.b

Most chillout places in Istanbul can be found in the many sokaks of Istiklal Caddessi, and these streets can be very lively at night. Though Levent is also a good choice, it's more on upscale(?) (or in my own term... "Synthetic"). I prefer the Istiklala Cad. and the area around Taksim. or the whole Beyoglu for that matter. Anything you like as long as you're clothed.
