Introduction

During the Qing Kangxi period, in order to resist the aggression of the Russian Empire, according to the decree of Emperor Kangxi, a military base was established in the vicinity of Qiqihar, and a post station called Bukui was built near the Mashi Temple, starting the construction of Qiqihar city. At that time, immigrants and garrison troops from Shandong and Hebei, as well as a large number of Hui Muslim people, followed their religious traditions of building mosques wherever they went. Therefore, during the process of building Qiqihar city in 1684, several mosques were constructed, which became the original East Mosque. Through multiple renovations and expansions, it has become the Islamic religious architecture with distinctive Chinese characteristics that we see today. Bukui Mosque consists of three parts: East, West, and Women's sections. It is one of the largest and relatively well-preserved mosques in Heilongjiang Province. The exquisite architectural art of the main hall (prayer hall) and the memorial hall combines religious and classical architectural styles of our country.
