There are many Hui people in Xi'an, so there are also many mosques, many mosques hidden in the alleys, you can not enter because they are not Hui people, unfortunately 😭, but it's good to look outside and feel the power of faith.
A large mosque, too powerful, there are Qingzhen food options, the Hui people's food culture is still different.
