【Honghe】The largest mosque in Asia is so beautiful!

Before, I heard that the largest mosque in Asia was actually in a small town in Honghe, and I was just curious and wanted to go see it. I didn't expect to find it so beautiful after I went there, and I stayed for an afternoon without wanting to leave. The location is in Shadian, Honghe, one day away. You can navigate to the Shadian Mosque. It is very close to Jianshui, less than half an hour by car. You can also take a look when you go to Jianshui. It is very convenient to take a taxi from the train station and it only takes more than ten minutes. Personally, I think it's worth a visit. The mosque has five prayer times every day. It is recommended to go around 1:30 pm and 6:30 pm in the afternoon. There will be sunlight in the main hall in the afternoon, and the light and shadow will be beautiful. The evening light is also good. Non-Muslims and women are not allowed to enter the main hall. Visiting is only allowed in the outer corridor, and do not wear too revealing clothes. Please wear long sleeves and long clothes as much as possible and respect others' beliefs. The security guards are very friendly, they can chat with you and even guide you on where to take photos. However, during prayer time, they will ask for silence. Overall, it is a beautiful and exotic mosque worth visiting, and you can also take beautiful photos there.
