The unfinished business. According to legend, the minaret of Kalta-Minor was ordered to be build by the governor of Khiva Muhammad Amin Khan. He wanted to build such a high tower that from its top one could see the city of Bahur, which is located 400 kilometers from the city. The construction was started, but was not completed after the death of the ruler. The unfinished minaret remained to nowadays.
