Architec­ture

Haji Ali Cara­van­serai has not been repaired or restored because it is an example of Azerbaijani his­tory and archi­tecture in Iravan. New buil­dings were built on the site of the ruined caravanserai.

The caravanserai consisted of 40 shops.

The capital of the Iravan kha­nate, the city of Iravan, was the main comer­cial center of the khanate. For this reason, a large warehouse, cara­vanserai, square and mints were located here. Ca­ravanserai had an important pla­ce in the kha­nate as a place where merchants from local and foreign countries stayed and sto­red goods in the­ir warehouses.
