Mosques

Domed, arched Chau Giang Mosque , in the hamlet of Chau Giang, serves the local Cham Muslims. To get there, take the car ferry from Chau Giang ferry landing across the Hau Giang River. From the ferry landing, walk inland from the river for 30m, turn left and walk 50m. The Mubarak Mosque , where children study the Quran in Arabic script, is also on the river bank opposite Chau Doc. Visitors are permitted, but you should avoid entering during the calls to prayer (five times daily) unless you are a Muslim. There are other small mosques in the Chau Doc area. They are accessible by boat but you’ll need a local guide to find them all.
