The fallowing years from the secont centry of Hira, the sects and it's branches were appeared and had been acting by time where Islam Spreaded out. The word of "tarikat" is plural of "tarik" means roda in Arabic. As a mistic term, it means some special behavior and activities. Every tarikat has a founder that is Pir. In this Pir time or after him, the rite of tarikat and it's rule and it's spacial behaviors have continued in a traditional order. It was known that with the large organazition sects had pleyed great role for conquests and on conversion of Cristian people to Islam, after Turkish came and sattle down to Anatolia, and after word, some politics went were progressing and espacialy during the transphormation of the Ottoman province to the empire. The first sects of Anatolia, like Maylavi, Bayrami and Bektashi has deepless tolerant, brodherhood, sharing things, clearance of conscience, and humanities; that to these charateristic two sociaty Cristians and Muslims made more closer and friendly to each other and finally these sects help them their Islamization. The dervish grubs in sect, who had joined to conquerd of Istanbul and help with huge work, after conquest of city they had continued to their activities in the city as settled with given oppurtunities from the government. Kalanderhane mosque that was a Beizantium churh was the first Mevlevi tekke During the following days after conquest of Istanbul, because of neeeds of the new buildings, espacially some foundation to make rite in these buildings. The total of takkes which built up in Fatih end Bayazit II.'s era reached up to 20. Following centuries this figur was up fast, the bigginning of twenty centery, if it was count unofficial, this figur has reached to 400. Some of takkes either had been established in the mosque which built before, but most of takke's builedings had been founded as brand-new. Also, it was seen some privaite houses have converted to the takke. To have official status, takkes need to found with wakfiyye (means regulation text of takke). There are hundred-thousant wakfiyye and its supplement has put in order. Takkes are that where zikr is done a certain day in a week, and where shiekh lives with his family and where the dervishes and visitor's any kind of needs have been solved and stay in, and where the food is cooked everyday for the poor people, and whrere rite, pray and eating is organized in the holy days and nights. All these kind of activitties based on according to the Turkish tradation and custom. Because of these fonction variety architecture of takke consist on many different buildings and unites, it has also large program. This program and their needs have been solved either in the big takke (like compus takke) or either in the small takke (built as a one bulding). A person can do or solve every kind of needs and activities in the takke. Unites and buildings in the takke created according to diversities of its activity. Every takke also put its regjulation in a different understanding. ItIX was seen that, Difference of men and women in Ottoman sociaty and understanding of live and daeth played important role to build up takke's architecture. The plan of takke contain of rich veriaty of solution. That is way this veriaties are showed when you analyse the main construction of the takke's architecture that tevhidhane (the place of zikr), tomb and its habitation's plan and the relationship of the buildings, used items in the building, structure and its side wall's position.
