Madrasah of Arab-Khan and Muhammad-Amin-Inak, Khiva, Uzbekistan



Two historical madrasah are situated in the center of Ichan-Qala to the left of the road going from Ata-darvaza gates to Palvan-darvaza. The first is connected with Arab-Muhammad-khan (1602-1623) from the Genghisids and the second relates to Muhammad-Amin-inak (1763/70-1790), the founder of the Manghit dynasty. Madrasah of Arab-khan was built in 1616 to commemorate the transfer of Khorezm's capital from Kunya-Urgench to Khiva.
