Kalta Minor MinaretYour journey begins at the breathtaking Kalta Minor Minaret, Khiva’s most photographed landmark. Its dazzling turquoise tiles glow under the desert sun, and your guide will share the legend of why this “short minaret” was never finished. Next door, step into the Muhammad Amin Khan Madrasah, once the largest in Central Asia, where hundreds of students once studied theology and philosophy.
-
Ota DarvozaFrom here, stroll through Ata-Darvaza, the northern gate of the fortress. Feel the weight of centuries as you look upon the massive city walls that once defended caravans, travelers, and armies along the Silk Road.

Pakhlavan Makhmud MausoleumNo visit to Khiva is complete without the Pakhlavan Mahmoud Mausoleum, a shrine to Khiva’s beloved poet, philosopher, and wrestler-saint. The turquoise domes shimmer with beauty, and pilgrims still visit to pay their respects.
