Beida Women's Mosque

📜 About & history

Beida Women's Mosque, at 130 Qingzhensi Street in Zhengzhou's Guancheng Hui District, was built in 1912 and rebuilt in 1930, with a traditional Chinese gate and hall of green tiles and red pillars plus modern two-storey wings. A women's school opened here in 1930 under the woman imam Xiao Zheng Kunfan; revived in 1978, it trained nearly 30 women imams under Imam Du Shuzhen, whose influence reached Henan, Shandong, Shanxi and Shaanxi. In 2011 it was placed on Zhengzhou's first list of protected outstanding modern buildings.
