Kunya-Ark, Ak-Sheikh-bobo mosque

The northwest corner of kurinysh-khana has the exit and corridor going to harem on the hill of Ak-Sheikh-bobo. This is the highest point of Kunya-ark which served a lookout tower. The legends say that a cell of saint Ak-Sheikh-bobo was located here in the 14th century. Khan's harem was located under the hill and consisted of one-column avian and several two-storied premises. Mint and khan's mosque were located between harem and kurinysh-khana.

The mint was founded at Muhammad-Rahim-khan I (1806-1825) who did tax reform, established customs houses and started gold coins minting. The mosque was constructed at Allakuli-khan (1825-1842) to the south of the mint. While the winter hall of mosque has very simple d?cor, its summer part looks very exquisite. Its avian with two rows of columns is painted in dark blue, green and red colors. Its walls, Mihrab and minbar as well as small towers at edges are entirely faced with majolica of exquisite vegetative pattern.
