The historic retreat chamber deep in Tohma Canyon used by Somuncu Baba for contemplation and spiritual seclusion. An invitation to a profound spiritual journey intertwined with nature.
The Çilehane is the historic site where Somuncu Baba withdrew into seclusion in Darende, spending long periods of contemplation. Hidden in the deep valley of Tohma Canyon, this structure is an inseparable part of the region's Sufi heritage.
Today, the path leading to the çilehane runs along the river through the canyon, with historic waterwheels and shaded picnic areas along the way. Reaching this place, which offers a unique experience combining historical, natural and spiritual values, is itself an enjoyable walk.
