Located almost opposite the Khodja Abd-i-Daroun complex, the 15th-century mausoleum of Ishratkhana is the burial monument of the women and children of the Timurid dynasty. It was built by Khabibi-Sultan-Beghim, wife of Sultan Abu Sayid. Its name, which translates as "house of joy", would have been given to it because of its sumptuous decorations, which can only be guessed at today. Following the earthquakes of 1897 and 1903, the central dome collapsed. In the centre, an underground crypt houses about twenty tombs.
