On August 28, 2008, Huangcun town of Daxing District invested 3.45 million yuan to build a new langgezhuang mosque in another place. Langgezhuang mosque is a place for religious activities in Huangcun town to implement the NPC deputies' motion and invest 3.45 million yuan in the reconstruction of langgezhuang village. It also further reflects the NPC deputies' concern for ethnic villages and their support for beliefs. Langgezhuang village belongs to a minority folk village in Huangcun town. There is a mosque in the village, which was built in the Qianlong period of Qing Dynasty. It has been more than 200 years since then. Because the temple is in disrepair for a long time and covers a small area, it can no longer meet the needs of local Muslims to engage in religious activities. Therefore, the Party committee and government of Huangcun town have built a new mosque in langgezhuang village, covering an area of 2000 square meters.
