Niu Jie Libai Si (Niu Jie Mosque)
Hours Daily 8am-7pm Address Niu Jie 88 Location On east side of street, Xuanwu Qu Transportation Bus: 61 to Libai Si from Changchun Jie metro stop (205, exit D) Phone 010/6353-2564 Prices Admission ¥10 ($1.25) for non-Muslims Frommer's Review This is Beijing's largest mosque and the spiritual center for the city's estimated 200,000 Muslims. Built in 996, the complex looks more Eastern than Middle Eastern, with sloping tile roofs similar to those found in Buddhist temples. Halls are noticeably free of idols, however. A small courtyard on the south side contains the tombs and original gravestones of two Arab imams who lived here in the late 13th century. The main prayer hall is ghostly quiet except on Friday, the traditional day of worship.
