Description

OVERVIEW

Watch a folkloric show that includes belly dancing while dining at the luxurious KoruMar hotel, which occupies a prime location on the Aegean Sea. Once you settle in, you will be treated to a performance that will include traditional dances from different regions of Turkey. You may see a dance indicative of the local Aydin region such as the Zeybek, which is named for the Zeybek guerilla fighters that centuries ago protected the villagers. The dance features majestic choreography to express the courage of the fearless fighters who were the Robin Hoods of western Turkey. The performance will also include authentic Turkish belly dancing, a joyous folk dance in which the elaborately costumed performers play finger cymbals. Belly dancing may be the most iconic of all Turkish dances. The bountiful buffet dinner served in the showroom will reflect the local cuisine and likely include seafood, a specialty in waterfront Kusadasi.
