Specifications

Attaqwa Mosque (Sometimes spells Attakkawa Mosque; Chinese: 訕巴契清真寺; pinyin: shànbāqìqīngzhēnsì, Thai: มัสยิดอัตตักวา; rtgsMatsayit Attakkwa) or San Pa Koi Mosque[1] (Thai: มัสยิดสันป่าข่อย; rtgsMatsayit Sanpa-khoi), located on the east side of the Ping River in Chiang Mai, is one of the seven Chinese mosques in Chiang Mai province.

It was first built in 1967, and finished in 1969 by a group of both Chinese and non-Chinese Muslims. The mosque also contains the first Islamic school in Chiang Mai, which maintains cultural and educational links with similar establishments in Kunming, Yunnan Province, China.[2][3]
