Southern Mosque

Step into Nan Da Mosque, Xinjiang's oldest Islamic gem! With its azure dome and intricate geometric patterns, this 600-year-old Uyghur-style mosque comes alive during prayer times when Quran recitations echo through the courtyard. Don't miss the millennium-old elm tree – locals believe its leaves bring blessings. Remove your shoes to admire the weathered Quranic inscriptions inside, where history whispers through every carved arabesque.
