On the other hand, this country has remained a comparatively isolated and secluded one, and being a land of mystery, this country is not known to the western half of the world. However, China is rapidly developing and has grown in the phase of modernization, with an immense speed and is also welcoming the outer world to interact and do business with them.
The Kowloon Mosque, located on bustling Nathan Road in a corner of Kowloon Park near the Tsim Sha Tsui MTR station, caters to the more than 50,000 Moslems in the territory, half of whom are Chinese. Built in 1984, the mosque is composed of white marble. The Mosque, with its grand white dome and minarets stands out on the Golden Mile and the Mosque is especially interesting to visit on Friday lunchtimes.Visitors are welcome to enter the Mosque on other days but groups should call in advance. The original mosque building, which was built in 1894, served the British army's Indian Muslim troops.
