Douluo Mosque
Douluo Mosque is a cultural tourism attraction and a patriotic education base.
Douluo Mosque was first built in the spring of the 52nd year of the Kangxi reign (1713) and underwent two renovation phases in 1994 and 2003. It is a district-level key cultural relic protection site. With the development of the Douluo small town and the construction of the Beijing Douluo High-end Manufacturing New Area, the population in the Douluo area has been growing rapidly, and the original mosque could no longer meet the needs of local Muslims for religious activities, making the construction of a new mosque necessary. On August 9, 2011, with strong support from the district government and relevant departments, construction began on the new Douluo Mosque. It was completed in July 2013 after two years, covering an area of 14,958 square meters with a building area of 12,142 square meters. The new mosque is majestic and spectacular, designed in a “回” (hui) character layout, with the main prayer hall placed at the center, creating an architectural style that resembles “a moon surrounded by stars,” featuring strong Islamic characteristics. The completion of the new Douluo Mosque fully reflects the wisdom and greatness of the Party’s policies and the authenticity and effectiveness of implementing religious belief policies. It symbolizes ethnic unity in Douluo Village and serves as a window to showcase the area externally.
This exhibition aims to present the long history, splendid culture, and tremendous historical changes of Douluo Mosque through five sections: the historical evolution of the mosque, architectural art, relics within the mosque, religious customs, and cultural exchanges. It stands as a tangible testament to the over 30 years of reform and development in Douluo Village, a crystallization of the hard work and wisdom of the Muslim community, and a carrier for the inheritance and development of Islamic culture. Through the exhibition, visitors can gain a better understanding of the ethnic, religious, and customary aspects of Chinese Muslims.
