beijingchinaislammuslimchinese muslimsnuijie areapecking duckforeignerfirst timefirst impressionsgreat wall of chinaforbidden cityenglandpakistanbritishWhat's it like praying in a mosque in China for the first time?
It was a surreal experience, something I'd never done before, amazing!
What was the street food like?
There's lots of it! I tried pastries with meat, some sort of bread, and chicken kebabs. The chicken kebabs were super hot and spicy!
Did you have any problems finding Halal food?
No, not at all. Lots of places had the Halal sign, and the butchers were clearly selling Halal meat.
What was the most surprising thing about Niujie?
Probably how friendly everyone was, and how openly people practiced their religion. It was nothing like what I'd expected from what I'd seen in the Western media.
