The Olloqulixon Madrasa or Alla Kouli Khan Madrasa is an architectural monument in Khiva (1834–35). The construction of the madrasa is related to the historical development of the ensemble near the Itchan Kala. The madrasa is located in the eastern part of the Itchan Kala. It is built in the style of a double madrasa, connected with the Ollo-qulixon Tim, the Khojamberdibiy Madrasa, and the Polvon Gate. The Olloqulixon Madrasa is built on an artificial hill (3 m high), which makes it look taller than the neighboring buildings.
