Id Kah Mosque

Id Kah Mosque is the largest mosque in China, a jewel of Islamic architecture in the heart of Kashgar. Built in 1442, it combines elements of Central Asian and Islamic styles, impressing with its yellow glazed tiles and intricate decorations.

The impressive courtyard and prayer hall can accommodate up to 20,000 worshippers, which is especially noticeable during Friday prayers and religious holidays. Three distinctive minarets with crescents on their tops are a recognizable feature of the city's skyline.

It is not only a place of worship, but also an important center for Islamic education and a symbol of the rich cultural heritage of the Xinjiang region.
