Olloqulixon Madrasa

The Olloqulixon Madrasa is built on an artificial hill (3 m high), which makes it look taller than the neighboring buildings.

During his reign in Khiva, Olloqulixon built buildings such as the caravanserai, the tim, the Oqmasjid, and the Saidboy Mosque.

The Khiva Khan Olloquli provided the students with the necessary literature and also donated the income from the nearby Tim and Caravanserai as additional waqf property for the madrasa library.

There are sources that say that Olloqulixon allocated 8500 tanob (about 9 thousand hectares) of land in the territory of the Khiva Khanate for the waqf of this madrasa.

[4] The inscription of the Fath surah of the Quran in a complex suls script is carved on the portal of the madrasa.

The ayvan (5.5x5.5 m) is located on the west side of the madrasa, and the mihrab is decorated with ganch muqarnas in the “Iraqi” style.
