Sheki
A trading past, a colorful legacy
Caravanserai courtyards, decorated palace interiors and intricate shebeke windows bring Sheki’s history and craftsmanship into focus.
A Silk Road town of caravanserais and stained-glass windows, with the Khan’s Palace at its centre.
Sheki grew rich on trade, and its caravanserai courtyards still stand beside the old bazaar. The Khan’s Palace is known for its shebeke windows — coloured glass set into wooden lattice without nails or glue — and Kish, a short drive away, holds a small historic church.
