The square at east Palvan-Darvaza gate was one of the liveliest places of Khiva. Here, the Anush-khan bathhouse and the single-storeyed building of Khodzam-berdybiya madrasah were constructed as far back as the XVII century.
The most ancient, of the remaining architectural constructions of Khiva, is Sheikh Seyid Allauddin’s mausoleum, dating back to the early part of the XIV century.
