Changying Mosque

     Destination Introduction
     Changying Mosque is the largest mosque in the suburbs of Beijing and one of the only seven ancient mosques remaining in Chaoyang District. It was built during the Zhengde era of the Ming Dynasty.

          Located in Changying Hui Ethnic Township, north of Guanzhuang on Chaoyang Road, Chaoyang District. The mosque was originally constructed in the Ming Dynasty and consists of a two-courtyard complex: the front courtyard houses a water room and classrooms, while the rear courtyard contains the main prayer hall and side halls. The buildings within the mosque are well-preserved, making it the largest mosque in the suburbs of Beijing. Since 1986, continuous fundraising by the Hui community has led to expansions and renovations. The entire complex has since grown significantly, with new structures added.

A women’s prayer hall has been added in recent years, dedicated to female worshippers.  Transportation Information
