Ramadan

Beijing’s Muslim community celebrates holy month of Ramadan

Muslims in China’s capital gathered at the Niujie Mosque – Beijing’s biggest and oldest mosque – to celebrate the start of Ramadan on April 13, 2021. During the month-long religious festival, Muslim worshippers traditionally congregate for prayers, gather around festive meals to break their day-long fast and exchange visits. While the Muslim community is a minority group in China, Islam has been practised in the country for about 1,400 years.
