it was beautiful... they never thought of rebuilding it exactly the same? Rebuilding of destroyed historical buildings is very common especially in Europe, both historically after WWII for example (Warzaw, Dresden, etc.) and currently (Istanbul). I wonder why there is no such interest.

Look at what the rebuild in Istanbul from scratch, Ciraan Palace built in the second half of the XIX century
