Yinchuan Nanguan Grand Mosque (Ningxia)

#chinatravel


Dating back to the Ming dynasty (1375), Nanguan Grand Mosque is one of China’s oldest surviving mosques. It serves the Hui Muslim community and melds traditional Chinese classical architecture with Islamic prayer halls and courtyards. Non-Muslim visitors may explore much of the compound outside prayer times. It’s a living example of religious harmony and architectural synthesis—perfect for cultural travelers intrigued by China's Islamic heritage.
