It was a real pleasure visiting this peaceful place and meeting young Dervish Cedi. Location is bit difficult to find and Google Maps will not be able to help you much. Try to follow the signs where available and once you get the crossroads take the one in the middle (you can check Google Maps and visually follow the road arriving Tekke.) You can learn a lot from Dervish on Bektashi philosophy, their history, how they live today and many more.

What a wonderful experience coming here. I had no intention of having a conversation with a dervish but had the pleasure of meeting Dervish Jadee. A young man who has dedicated himself to the path of righteousness and love for his fellow human beings. This dervish is more like a monastery where the dervishes let go of all family and ties and dedicate themselves to the path. Dervish Jadee offered me a coffee while he enlightened my soul.

Es complicado acceder con un vehículo normal, mejor con tracción. Cuando estuvimos solo hay un matrimonio mayor que se hospedan allí y lo cuidan. También vimos a 3 obreros transando en su mantenimiento.o he visto un poco descuidado y tampoco he visto ningún derviche. De hecho el joven que se menciona en las reseñas estaba dentro pero no tuvo amabilidad de saludarnos o al menos indicarle a la señora de abrirnos el Tekke. Después de la caminata caminando creo que nos merecíamos un poco de atención ya que las que hemos ido nos han dejado entrar y visitar. Nos quedamos decepcionados por este motivo.

Teqeja e Melanit është një qendër fetare për myslimanët bektashianë dhe ndodhet në fshatin Nepravishtë, bashkia Libohovë. Ndërtesa e tanishme e Teqesë u ngrit në vitin 1800 nga baba Aliu i Gjirokastrës, varri i të cilit është në Turbe përpara strukturës kryesore të teqesë. Një mur masiv i blloqeve poligonale dhe drejtkëndëshe rrethon fundin e territorit, të cilat mendohet se kane qenë një fortifikim Ilir. Zbulimi i qeramikës nga shekulli IV para Krishtit gjithashtu mbështet këtë ide, që kjo zone ka qenë e banuar. Muri u rindërtua në shekujt 5 ose VI-të pas Krishtit, kur në shumë prej këtyre vendeve të lashta kodrinore u ri-fortifikuan, pas rënies së Perandorisë Romake. Mendohet se keto mund të jenë mbetjet e Justinianopolis, një qytet i shekullit të 6-të për të cilin ende nuk është përcaktuar një vendodhje e saktë. Melani gjithashtu ka qenë një vend i fortifikuar në mesjetë, pasi një kishë e vogël ekziston në anën jugore të rrethimit të fortifikuar. Një rrugë me gurë kalldrëmi i çon vizitorët deri në Teqenë e Melanit duke kaluar një shatërvan të tipit otoman, destinacioni origjinal i ujësjellësit. Ndërtesa e tanishme e Teqesë u ngrit në vitin 1800 nga baba Aliu i Gjirokastrës, varri i të cilit është në Turbe përpara strukturës kryesore të teqesë. Teqeja aktuale e Melanit u ndërtua në majë të një manastiri të mëparshëm bektashian, i cili drejtohej nga baba Hasani. Fillimisht Teqeja ndodhej në rrugën kryesore përgjatë pjesës lindore të Luginës. Në 1809 Lord Bajroni kaloi këtej në udhëtimin e tij nga Preveza për të vizituar Ali Pashë Tepelenën. Por kjo rrugë u anashkalua kur Ali Pasha ngriti një sërë urash dhe rrugësh përgjatë luginës. Për të shkuar në Melan ju duhet të mbërrini në fshatin Grapsh, 4 km nga...
