Qingjing Mosque, Islamic mosque in Licheng District Quanzhou, China.

The Qingjing Mosque spans 2,500 square meters with a granite entrance gate featuring four connected archways and a 20-meter-high pointed-arch portal.

Built in 1009 during the Song Dynasty, the Qingjing Mosque stands as the oldest Arab-style mosque in China, marking the presence of Arab merchant communities.

Stone tablets near the entrance document the mosque's reconstructions and display an imperial edict from Ming Dynasty Emperor Zhu Di protecting the structure.

The mosque receives visitors daily between 8:00 AM and 5:30 PM, with access through nearby Huaxiangkou, Fuwenmiao, or Guandimiao bus stations.

The entrance structure combines Chinese caisson ceiling patterns in its outer layers with Arab architectural elements in the inner vaulted section.
