Wuxi Mosque, Islamic prayer center in Liangxi District, China.
The Wuxi Mosque is an Islamic house of worship in Liangxi District featuring curved domes and tall minarets that rise above surrounding buildings. The structure blends Islamic architectural features with local Chinese design elements throughout its composition.
The mosque was established in 1921 as a religious center for the Muslim community in the city. A major renovation in 1999 reshaped the building into the structure seen today.
The mosque serves the local Muslim community as a gathering place for daily prayers and religious observances throughout the year. Visitors can observe how worshippers use the space and how the community maintains its traditions within the city.
The building is located on Jiefang South Road and is easily accessible by metro, as Nanchan Temple Station is nearby. Visitors should be prepared to follow the customs of a religious site and dress respectfully.
The building displays a rare fusion between Middle Eastern construction principles and Chinese design language, visible especially in the facade and decorative elements. This blend emerged from decades of cultural exchange within the city.
