📜 About & history
By tradition founded in the Tang dynasty, the North Mosque faces east and once had a six-bay prayer hall roofed in green glazed tiles. It was destroyed in the 1645 Yellow River flood that drowned Kaifeng and rebuilt on a new site in 1662 (Kangxi 1). It is counted among the four most historic and famous mosques of urban Kaifeng and was listed as a Henan provincial protected cultural relic in 2008.
