One of the biggest mosques in northwest China, the Great Mosque of Xining holds many surprises for the traveler who is used to Middle Eastern mosques and will not fail to please the visitor.
More and more moslims came in, and then there was the call for prayer. Most went inside, but some remained under the pillared corridors of the koran school buildings to pray, while the afternoon sun was setting on the mosque. At the end, people rushed out again, and one of the scholars invited me in so I could see their classroom. A very friendly guy, who explained that they all studied Koran in Arabic, and who told me about his ambition to become an imam and, one day, visit Mecca. He was even nicer when he guessed my age well 10 years below the actual age!
