Xiahe Mosque

Xiahe Mosque

In that big long monologue I subjected you to at the beginning of this

piece, I mentioned all the mosques. As I noted then , I did manage the

get just enough juice into my batteries to take a few photos in Xiahe

and of Labrang. This is the Xiahe Mosque – the only workable shot I

have, from all the lovely Mosques I saw throughout the regions I

traveled in. Note both Arabic and Chinese writing on the front, and

the crescent at the top of a very Chinese styled minaret.
