📜 About & history

Baizhuang Mosque is in Baizhuang Village, Cisheng Town, Zhecheng County, Henan. It was founded in the Qing Daoguang era (1821–1850) on land given by the brothers Bai Yuncang and Bai Yunxia, with funds from four brothers of the Han family, and originally had 18 rooms including a prayer hall and north and south lecture halls. Damaged in the Cultural Revolution, it was rebuilt from August 1988 under Bai Mingqi, Han Xiaozhong and others, with a stele marking the rebuilding. Its buildings total 820 square metres; the prayer hall combines Chinese and Arab styles, with "Hall of Facing the Truth" written over the door. It serves 430 Hui households (more than 1,500 people) of the Yihewani tradition.
