The height of the minaret with a sharp point is 12 meters. It is believed that this minaret was a kind of beacon for ships sailing along the Pearl River.

According to the manuscripts of 1206, the mosque was built by the uncle of the Prophet Muhammad Saad ibn Abi Waqqas during the first Chinese Muslim mission in 630 ... More reliable evidence suggests that the mosque was built in the early years of the Song dynasty.
