Nadir Divanbegi Khanaka, in Bukhara, Uzbekistan.

On the western side of the Lyabi-Hauz is the Nadir Divanbegi Khanaka, a Sufi cloister used for religious ceremonies, debates and instruction. Both this and the medressa opposite are named for Abdul Aziz KhanÃ¢â¬â¢s treasury minister, who financed them in the 17th century. It`s the poor relation of the medressa, but inside there`s a small display of ceramics.
