Ürümqi Shaanxi Mosque, Islamic sanctuary in Tianshan District, China.

Ürümqi Shaanxi Mosque covers a walled plot about 100 m east-west and 56 m north-south, with the prayer hall set on the west side facing east. The hall's front section is 11.7 m high under a single-eaved hip roof of green glazed tiles; behind it rises an octagonal two-storey tower over 17 m tall. A 36-column red wooden gallery surrounds the hall, and the main entrance now opens south onto Yonghe Lane.

Hui Muslims from Shaanxi's Wei River valley funded the first Shaanxi Mosque in 1883, on low ground south of Dihua's south gate. With the congregation growing, imam Ma Liangjun led a five-year reconstruction funded by Shaanxi officials, merchants and commoners, completed in 1906. In 1942 governor Zhang Zhizhong paid for repairs to the lecture halls, finished in 1947; the mosque was listed as a national key cultural relic in 2013.

The name comes from the Hui Muslims of Shaanxi's Wei River valley who funded the original 1883 hall. Inside, brick carvings and woodwork use flowers and fruit rather than figures or animals, following Islamic rules against idolatry. The prayer hall keeps a traditional Chinese timber frame with green glazed tiles.

The site is organized into different sections for various activities, making it straightforward to navigate the spaces. Keep in mind this is an active worship site, so respect for religious practices and customs is important when visiting.

The building serves as the headquarters of Ürümqi's Islamic Association and manages religious affairs across the city. This makes it more than just a prayer site but rather a central hub for local Muslim community organization.
