Q: Peking Mosque

Anyone have an idea if this is the Great Mosque in Peking? I know
things would be different after a hundred years, like no laundry
hanging out the window.

Tom:

The great mosque (Niujie Mosque) is shown below.
A major renovation ($2.1 million US) was done 2005-6.

Blair,
Thanks. I came up with similar new photography.
It is difficult to say if it is some part of a complex, if it is out
over water. I did quite a large image search and found a mosque next
to water and many with the same architectural elements but no exact
matches.

Me too,
It didn't seem like a structure, even with extensive renovations
could cover 6000m2
The (apparent) cement piles, had me wondering, as well.

I approve of the washing/drying, no greenhouse gas footprint
