The results highlight that music shapes the ambiance of cafés, enhances customer satisfaction, and supports community formation. The study demonstrates that the music culture of cafés extends beyond individual experiences, significantly influencing broader social dynamics.

It is established thad a variety of animal symbolism was employed in the corpus of early Turkish art and on medieval tombstones. The dragon, a mythical creature with naturalistic elements, is a prominent figure in the Hatice Turhan Valide Sultan Tomb’s double-headed eagle shamsa compositions. The dragon desing was a prevalent element in Turkish art, particularly in sixteenth-century tile work, often associated vith the cloud motif. Nevertheless, these myths from the seventeenth century, which feature the double-headed eagle and the suggestion of a multi-headed dragon through the structure of a dynasty tomb, continue to serve as a significant example of stylisation in Ottoman tile designs to the present day. This study will examine the iconography of the double-headed eagle and dragon figures observed in the shamsa tile compositions of the Hatice Turhan Valide Sultan Tomb. The eagle and dragon figures seen in the shamsa from, which represents a distinct design field within Ottoman tile art, will be evaluated a comparative method with references drawn from Turkish art examples.
