Message from Graziano e Federica

The Allakuli Khan Madrassah in Khiva, built in the 19th century, is known for its rich decoration featuring vibrant Khorezmian-style majolica in black, white, and blue hues. Named after the ruler who initiated its construction, this madrassah boasts intricate designs in its tambourines, columns, and portal. It also housed a library established by Allakuli Khan, offering books to students of Khiva Madrasah.
