Özet:

 The terms Folklore or Traditional Culture are frequently used in the definition of intangible cultural heritage elements. Traditional folk dances, one of the most important elements of traditional culture, is one of the most frequently used elements as a touristic product in almost every destination thanks to its rich content. Similarly, in a total of 7 rock restaurants operating in the Cappadocia Region, Turkish Folk Dances are presented to tourists as an animation activity under the name of Turkish night. In this study, the extent to which the use of Turkish Folk Dances, one of the intangible cultural heritage elements presented under the name of Turkish night, as a touristic product in rock restaurants operating in the Cappadocia Region, affects the commodification of these elements is examined. In the study, it is aimed to reveal whether the Turkish folk dances, which contain many intangible cultural heritage elements together, are used as a commodity and whether the necessary care is taken to protect them in accordance with the original. Qualitative research method was chosen for in-depth examination and interpretation of the study subject. Data were collected using both primary and secondary data. Secondary data were collected through literature review. Primary data were obtained directly in the study area by using in-depth interview technique with the records and notes taken. The collected data were analysed using the deductive method.

 Araştırmada Kapadokya Bölgesinde faaliyet gösteren kaya restoranlarda, Türk gecesi adı altında sunulan somut olmayan kültürel miras unsurlarından biri olan Türk Halk Danslarının turistik bir ürün olarak kullanılmasının bu unsurların metalaşmasına ne ölçüde etki ettiği incelenmiştir. Çalışmada dans, giyim-kuşam, müzik, düğün, aksesuar gibi bir çok Somut Olmayan Kültürel Miras unsurunu bir arada barındıran Türk Halk Danslarının Kapadokya Bölgesindeki kaya restoranlarda Türk Gecesi adı altında sergilenmesi sırasında gerekli özenin gösterilip gösterilmediği, bu miras unsurlarının aslına uygun olarak korunup korunmadığı, bu kültürel unsurların meta olarak kullanılıp kullanılmadığının ortaya konulması amaçlanmıştır. Çalışmada konunun derinlemesine bir biçimde incelenmesi ve yorumlanabilmesi için nitel araştırma yöntemi seçilmiştir. Veriler hem birincil hem de ikincil veriler kullanılarak toplanmıştır. İkincil verilerin toplanması literatür taraması yolu ile yapılmıştır. Birincil veriler ise derinlemesine görüşme tekniği kullanılarak kayıt ve alınan notlar ile doğrudan çalışma alanında elde edilmiştir. Toplanan veriler tümden gelim yöntemi ile içerik analizine tabi tutulmuştur. Verilerin analizi sonucunda kaya restoranlarda Türk gecelerinin aslına uygun olarak yapılmadığı, kıyafet, müzik ve diğer materyaller açısından gerekli özenin gösterilmediği görülmüştür. İdare tarafından gerekli denetimlerin yapılmadığı, gerek müşteriler gerekse rehber ve acenteler tarafından işletmelere yapılan baskıların ve işletmelerin ticari kaygılarının turistik ürün olarak halk oyunlarının metalaşmasına neden olduğu sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.
