It lies directly west of the water basin and is opposed to the Nodir-Devonbegi-Madrasa in the Kosch principle.

in 1620 by and is named after Nodir Devonbegi, the uncle and grand vizier of Imam Quli Khan. It was created simultaneously with the central water basin and served as a dwelling and meeting place for the dervishes and as a hostel for the pilgrims.
The Chanaqa was rebuilt several times and fundamentally restored by Syed Olimxon in 1914-16 under Alim Khan, the last emir of the Emirate of Bukhara.
The building has a rectangular floor plan with a floor area of 25 × 35 meters. The Pischtak with the pointed-arched entrance Ivan protruding above the roof edge is covered with coloured patterns. The three-quarters round corner towers closing with the roof edge are moved close to the Pischtak, so that the storefront appears much narrower than with the other buildings of the ensemble.
A large dome rises above the cross-shaped main hall. There are niches in the coupled-over main hall, which are closed with muqarnas. In the corners of the building, the living rooms for the dervishes and the pilgrims lie on two floors.
