Fuzhou Mosque
The city's historic mosque, serving a small resident Hui community — one of the older mosques in Fujian.
Fuzhou Changle International Airport (FOC) serves the capital of Fujian, a coastal province whose port of Quanzhou was once the greatest in the medieval world — and still holds the Ashab Mosque, founded in 1009.
Fuzhou is a green, hot-spring city of banyan trees and rivers, and the capital of the province that produced China's greatest seafaring tradition. It is also a quiet, low-key halal environment — one historic mosque, a modest number of Muslim-run restaurants, and a lot of excellent Fujian cooking that needs to be sourced carefully.
The reason to come anyway is geography: Fuzhou sits within an hour and a half of Quanzhou, and Quanzhou is where Muslim heritage in coastal China lives. The Ashab Mosque, the Islamic tombs on Lingshan and the medieval port ruins make a day that no other city in China can offer.
The international airport serving Fujian's provincial capital, with regional links across Asia and a growing long-haul network.
One main terminal; a metro line and airport express buses connect to the city.
50–60 minutes to the city centre. Longer than the airport's size suggests — plan the arrival day accordingly.
