Guangzhou, China
Huaisheng Mosque
The Huaisheng Mosque is the main mosque of Guangzhou, located in the Yuexiu District, in the Guangdong Province of China. Rebuilt many times over its history, some historical texts claim that it was first built in the 7th century, but modern scholarship places its foundation at a later period during the Tang or Song dynasties. The most unusual feature of the mosque is its pointed 36-metre-high minaret, the Guangta or Kwangtah.
