📜 About & history

Guyang Mosque in Guyang Town, Lankao County, formerly called Kaocheng Mosque, was founded in the mid-Qing dynasty. It began as a few thatched rooms; a three-bay traditional hall was built in 1917 but was destroyed by Yellow River floods in 1932. After 1949 a two-bay hall was rebuilt, and in 1985 the mosque was enlarged and renovated. It covers about 0.7 mu with 82 square metres of buildings and serves 35 Hui households (175 people) of the Qadim (Gedimu) tradition.
