Russian poet Yakov Polonsky stayed in the Shah Abbas caravanserai for a few days while visiting Ganja in the middle of the 19th century.
[5] Regarding the burning of the caravanserai, Firidun bey Kocharli wrote in his memoirs: In 1905, ... did not survive because of the Armenian tribe.
In order to preserve the historicity of the caravanserai, which underwent clumsy repairs several times during the Soviet era, the previously built additional buildings were demolished.
The strengthening of the historical monument has been completed, the damaged parts have been repaired, and communication lines have been built.
On the first floor, inside the right and left walls, cone-shaped slits were made for the guards to stand, and lamps and candles were used to illuminate the interior.
The dome that forms the ceiling of the high interior, where the steps are located, has a grid pattern composition in the shape of an eight-pointed star.
Also, a dense, compact junction of the composition was created with the ornament elements of the central part of the dome.
Geometric pattern elements spreading from the center to the edges reduce the tension in the composition and give it freedom.
