Pugui Mosque Review

The largest Islamic complex in Heilongjiang Province, just in the downtown area of Qiqihar, the oldest mosque in the northeast area, the building is very characteristic, large scale, complete preservation, exquisite carvings in the temple, vivid brick carvings, it is worth seeing

Bukui Mosque, formerly known as the East Mosque and the West Mosque, is located in the bustling commercial district of Qiqihar City, Heilongjiang Province. The two temples stand together, separated by only one wall, and have a porch. They are both a complete group of ancient buildings and can be established separately with each other. Built in 1684, seven years before Bukui built the city, so there is "first mosque, then Bukui city" said.

Non-Muslims are charged $6 for tickets, but it is still highly recommended to visit. Although it is a mosque, there are too many Chinese architectural elements. The kiln hall is now closed and not applicable, but its own building is very beautiful, you can find internal staff to help explain it.

Our first trip to Qiqihar was the Bukui Mosque, which is not small, it was built in 1684, earlier than Qiqihar, formerly Qiqihar also called Bukui City. This is a Chinese-style building, not the dome onion style we usually see. It was said that in the Red Guards' troubles, the valuable forehead was destroyed, and the Holy Word was left untouched. The color of the wall remained unfading for centuries.

In Qiqihar Jianhua Hutong, palace-style buildings, national key historical protection buildings, antique, very good
