According to legend, it is the burial place of a great wrestler who won competitions in India and refused a large reward in exchange for the return of the captive inhabitants of these places. Then a cemetery was formed next to him, because people believed that lying next to him was a blessing, and then the local ruler decided to lie down next to him. Then ordinary people were moved and a mausoleum and a mosque were erected. Then the premises for the ruling dynasty were completed, but they did not have time to fully use them - the Soviet government came!

Beautiful authentic old town. Perfectly preserved. It feels like you're being transported back several centuries. It looks especially impressive in the evening, when the lights turn on and the city becomes sparsely populated. An evening walk through the old town leaves a wonderful impression

This is a real oriental fairy tale! If you are planning a trip to Uzbekistan, be sure to visit Khiva. I recommend staying in the Ichan Kala fortress itself, there are many good hotels there. Ichan Kale has everything you need to stay - hotels, restaurants, cafes, shops, souvenir shops. The fortress has been preserved almost in its original form, so staying there will leave a lot of positive impressions.
