Shanxiang Mosque (Chinese: 山巷清真寺; pinyin: Shānxiàng Qīngzhēnsì) is a Sunni mosque in Runzhou District, Zhenjiang City, Jiangsu Province, China. It sits on about 2,000 square metres of land and was built in 1662 in traditional Chinese architectural style, with several later reconstructions. In 1903, the mosque opened an Islamic school. During World War II, it served as a refugee camp for people fleeing the Japanese invasion. Today the mosque hosts activities such as Imam training, forums, and guest receptions.
