The large square in front of the palace gates was used for parades, military exercises and executions. In the center of the square, a hole allowed blood to drain away during mass executions, such as those in 1717, when the 3,000 Russian soldiers of Prince Bekovitch's expedition and the prince himself were beheaded. In the western corner, you can visit an insalubrious model prison dating from the 19th century, the zindan, a cousin of Bukhara's rat hole where the unfortunate condemned rotted abandoned from the world of the living.
