I was born and raised in Niujie, and today I work as a local guide in Beijing. For me, Niujie is not simply a place to visit — it is my home and my community.
Niujie has long been the heart of Beijing’s Muslim community, with a history that spans centuries. Niujie Mosque stands as a symbol of that history, representing generations of faith, culture, and continuity in this part of the city.

Main gate is closed for renovation, but we can enter from the side gate in Shuru Hutong. The congregational prayer usually starts quite a while after the actual adhan time.

A small mosque, maybe can cater for 200- 300 jemaah or maybe more. The mosque also have a room for ladies, toilet with bidet, and ablution. The mosque have a main hall and also open space.
The entrance would be at the side of the area facing the main road, I am not sure the road name , but once i got the name, insyaAllah will edit my posting.
This mosque also available for kumaat prayer and khutbah, in mandarin.

The mosque is currently undergoing a 3-year long renovation since mid 2024. FYI there is a small prayer hall at the back that is open to public for prayer.

The area around the mosque is an Islamic quarter with a lot of Islamic shops, restaurants , eateries, bakeries, supermarkets etc. very unique and good for the Islamic community, or tourists. There’s many long Q for the shops and have long history. So I think it’s very popular even for the locals. The mosque itself is adjacent to the popular shops. But unfortunately it’s closed for 3 years renovation from Feb 2025. There’s an ancient boundary wall still left behind. Interesting stuff. Hope I can
