📜 About & history
Runing Mosque on Xinhua Street was founded in 1529 (8th year of the Ming Jiajing era). Enlarged in the Ming and Qing, by the early Republic it was an old complex of over 10 mu with a nine-bay prayer hall, a five-room funeral hall, lecture halls and ablution rooms. Occupied by a school and a factory during the Cultural Revolution, when relics were lost, it was restored after 1982. Today it covers 5 mu with 55 rooms, including a pailou-style gateway, the prayer hall and a women's mosque, and serves some 3,600 Hui.
