The eastern gate of palvan darvaza Ichan-Kala (18th – 19th centuries),. (1835) was renovated in the early 19th century in 1804-06 under Iltuzarkhan. The gate differs significantly from other gates of Ichan –kala, in terms of volume and size. It is no coincidence that the people called them Bagatyr people. A majolica slab with the inscription "Shahri Kheyvak" (Khiva city) has been preserved above the entrance, the numerical value of the letters gives the date of construction – 1221, i.e. 1806 AD. The length of the gate is 52 m., the width is 17.5 m.. The shops are rectangular, their number is extraordinary, 8 on the south side, 11 on the north side.
The oldest Eastern gate of the Khiva citadel. The most important historical place of the ancient city of Khiva. The central shopping place of the city, a square with a bazaar and baths.
This is a historically valuable object.Despite the rustic gates, it is still very important for the guests of our city.The gates are in very good condition.
These gates take us from the Old Khiva to the new one - the avenue leading to the railway station begins from them - a modern wide and spacious street built up with hotels and restaurants. In contrast to the narrow streets of Ichan-Kala, it is very impressive.
Beautiful gate, one of the 4 gates to the fortress of Khiva. They charge a fee to enter through them. If you don't want to pay, go through the side gate for free.
