Amasya Darülşifa Music Room

This is the music room of the Amasya Darul-sifa which was a clinic and a hospital that was built in 1308-1309 (after the time of Selcuks, before Ottoman period)and may have been the first place to try to treat mental disorders with music and by using flowing water on the walls of the structure....They believed sound of water was healing for the mind...That made a lot of sense to me as I was sitting in the room and listening the "Ney" class...The acoustics were incredible..
I wanted to show you how amaising this room is ..so I decided to upload this full scale...Please either view it original (which is HUUUGE) and study the instruments of the Ottoman era or view it large in black..You will be amaised at the details..I promise!!
