Prayer Facilities

Plenty of open space is available out in the open, though designated prayer facilities at Moon Hill will not be available for Muslim travellers. Travellers will also have to keep in mind that there are no known mosques in Yangshuo and the nearest mosques to Yangshuo are in the city of Guilin, about 80 kilometres away.

Halal Food

Though a few eateries will be available around the area, access to Halal food may be limited. Though vegetarian options may be available, it is highly recommended that you enquire about how food is prepared prior to dining. Muslim travellers may visit a few of the Halal restaurants which are available in the city. The halal noodle shop opposite the bus stand is a popular Halal food spot amongst the small Muslim community in the city.
