Two-Storeyed Caravanserai, Medieval caravanserai in Old City, Azerbaijan
The Two-Storeyed Caravanserai features a square structure with an octagonal courtyard, surrounded by balconies and rooms with pointed ceilings and small domes.
Built in the 15th century under Shirvan Khalilullah I, this caravanserai served as a crucial stopping point for merchants traveling through the Shamakhi Gates.
The architectural elements of the caravanserai reflect the influence of Ottoman and Persian design traditions, incorporating defensive towers and integrated city wall structures.
The caravanserai now functions as a social gathering space, offering visitors access through two-sided open entries connected to former sea trade routes.
Corner towers protect the southeastern section of the building, while deep niches at the first-floor level create distinct architectural patterns throughout the structure.
