Interior, view toward the tiled dome. Although popularly credited to the Chaghatayid Turabek/Tughrabek/Turabik Khanum, the latest research suggests that it may have been erected by Timur (Tamerlane) in her honour in the 1380s. The tile mosaic is unique for its time in the use of red and lime green.
