| Costume of Hui people: It is the most widely distributed minority in China, mainly in Ningxia Hui nationality autonomous region, Gui and Qinghai provinces, as well as Henan, Hebei, Shandong, and Yunnan provinces. The Hui population is 981,6802. Hui is the abbreviation of Hui Hui nationality. The spread of Islamism in China has helped its development rapidly. Hui people made great contribution in medicine, science and technology. Because of Hui people, some Chinese famous inventions, such as paper-making, weapon-making, and compass usage, were spread to Europe successfully via business in the early times for the civilization of whole world. Gregorian solar calendar was another important contribution of theirs. The clothing of Hui is neat, simple, and comfortable without magnificent accessories. White, green, and black are the main colors of their clothing originally from the long history of Islamism. White is the purest color with joy and the best for clothes, said by Mohammed. Green means scared, widely used by Muslim, especially for pilgrimage. Green hat, lid, pants, gown, and so on are often worn by young Hui women. | ||
