In 1435, the Kok-Gumbaz mosque (the “Blue Dome”) was built opposite the Kulyal's mausoleum and on the same axis. The inscription on the portal says about its construction by Ulugbek on behalf of his father Shah Rukh. It played the role of the Juma Mosque, that is, the Friday Cathedral Mosque of Shahrisabz.

Dorut Tilovat

The creation of an architectural ensemble the Dorut-Tilavat madrasah mainly dates back to the reign of Ulugbek. First of all, a domed mausoleum was erected over the tomb of Sheikh Kul, on the remains of some earlier buildings.
