The Id Kah Masjid is a Masjid located in Kashgar, Xinjiang, in the western People's Republic of China.
It is the largest Masjid in China. Every Friday, it houses nearly 10,000 worshippers.
The Masjid was built by Shakesimirzha in 1422 (although it included
older structures dating back to the 8th century) and covers
16,800 square meters. The Masjid was started in 996.
It was at the center of a sharp rise in tension between the Muslim Uyghurs
and the ruling Han Chinese in Xinjiang in 2003, when developers razed a rose garden
on the Masjid site and built an enclosed market nearby.
