Kunya-Ark Fortress
A key Khiva attraction inside Itchan Kala for orientation, skyline context, and route sequencing through the old city.
Why this place is useful
Kunya-Ark is one of the best first stops in Khiva to build orientation before smaller monument visits.
Best trip fit
Use as an early anchor on your first Itchan Kala day.
Practical notes
- Pair with nearby mosque/minaret blocks to avoid backtracking.
- Enter early in warm months for better pacing.
