The ensemble includes Seyid-biy madrasa, a mosque, and a minaret, Ichan-Kala, surrounded by the very strong walls of the inner city of Khiva.
An apartment on wooden columns is attached to the main building. The aivan was built in an open-ended style, and there are wooden columns that have been around for more than a hundred years (18-19th century).
The madrasah is small, but the minaret reaches 30 meters.
It is beautifully decorated and crowned with a specially made arched lantern and a stalactite cornice.
