    The Khan's Palace of Sheki is the former summer residence of the Khan of Sheki. It is located in the citadel of the city of Şəki in Azerbaijan and is surrounded by castle walls. The building was built in the 18th century in Persian style and, along with the historic part of the city, was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 2019.

      Khan's Palace (Xan Sarayı), Giləhli. Former summer palace in the citadel of the Khans, built in 1797. Only surviving wing. Numerous frescoes worth seeing. Used by the Tsar's governors from the 1850s. Beautified in 1895/6 and 1902. Some years ago somewhat sterilely renovated. Group tours for viewing, photography is prohibited.
