Add PhotosThe Great Octagon was erected in the late 16th and early 17th centuries, in the best traditions of Ottoman architecture, borrowed by Crimea from Istanbul . The plan of the building is based on an extremely regular octagon with an entrance from the north-eastern side. The walls of the mausoleum are made of limestone, which is well hewn and skillfully worked with catfish; the seams on the walls are carefully adjusted, the masonry is made perfectly smooth, the details are modeled very delicately, the constructiveness and logic of each part completely harmonize with the overall composition. All this testifies to the high skill of the creators of this monumental building.
