#Sheikh #Zayed #Mosque for #China! #Religion #Islam #Culture #Architecture #Space The city of #Wuzhong in China is to be the setting of a massive new mosque which will accommodate 1,000 #worshippers. It will be dedicated to the founder of the #UAE, Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan, in remembrance of his #humanitarian work across the globe. The building will have a prayer hall, ablution areas and separate facilities for #men and #women as well as accommodation for the resident Imam. Wuzhong, in the Ningzia region, is home to a large Muslim population and the project is aimed at catering to their religious and spiritual needs as well as being a meeting place for residents. Scientific and other educational discussions will also be held on the site. The project has the full backing of the UAE government. http://www.designmena.com/thoughts/ningxia #Archbhoo
