  Zhen’an is one of the areas in Shaanxi with the highest concentration of Hui ethnic residents. Among the province’s three Hui-majority towns, Zhen’an accounts for two. Since the Hongwu era of the Ming Dynasty, Hui people began migrating to Zhen’an, where their community has continuously thrived, forming a unique folk culture. The Hui people follow Islam and have distinctive customs. The mosque serves as the center of activity for the Hui community and is the venue where Muslims celebrate important festivals such as Eid al-Fitr, Eid al-Adha, and the Prophet's Birthday. Local mosques include the County Mosque, Yangjiaya Mosque, Guanshang Mosque, Laozhuang Mosque, Chengjiachuan Mosque, and those in Miliang. Visitors to the area should consult with local Hui residents regarding matters needing attention and respect Islamic customs and practices.
