Bibi-Khonym Madrasah.
Bibi Khanym Mosque has a nexus to Timur's principal wife Sarai-Molk Khanym.
While Timur was years in his military campaigns, his wife (was already an
elderly lady) was most probably overseeing the work on the mosque, the most
important new development of capital. What is certain is that under the aegis of Sarai-Molk Khanym directly opposite the mosque Bibi Khanym one in the same time a madrasah had been built. Only one dome structure of former madrasah has remained today, which has been mistakenly handed down by fame as the mausoleum of Bibi Khanym.
