    It is one of the largest caravanserais that was on the former Silk Road. There was space for around 300 traders inside. There was an adjacent garden for the camels, which is the same size as the inner part.

    Nice place near the Kahn Palace in the historic center of Sheki. Well restored and there is a coffee shop in the courtyard. Entrance was free.
