3.China Hui Culture Park: exotic scenery within the park
It is necessary to get to know the culture of Hui people after coming to Yinchuan. A visit is recommended to the China Hui Culture Park in the Hui people’s homeland located in Najiahu village. It’s where the group’s richest cultural traditions converge. The park is the only civilian-run and government-supported exhibition site for the culture and folk-customs of the Chinese Hui people and where you can have access to the largest Hui museum in China. Built to resemble the Chinese character for “Hui”, the museum is the epitome of the long-standing history of the Hui people as well as extensive and profound Islamic culture.
