At Taq-i Telpaq Furushon it was possible to purchase luxurious headgears: skull-caps embroidered with gold-thread and beads, fur-hats, and turbans skillfully rolled up. Five streets at different angles reached the building. Architects solved this complex problem by making way for the street between six radially dispersing pylons carrying a low cylindrical cupola (of 14.5 meters in diameter) with dodecahedral skylight. The gallery with niches and storerooms around the hall were erected on 12 axes.

Western passage of Taq-i Telpaq Furushon opens to the street Mekhtar Ambar. The first building on the right that adjoins to the wall of Taq-i Telpaq Furushon is the ancient caravanserai Kuleta 16th century. A little in front on the left, stands out the Kurpa Mosque in its unrenewed grace. Nearly at the end of this street on the right there is another unrepaired brilliant, the Madrasah of Mullo Tursunjon.
