He's Thai, not Chinese.

Anyway, uh... Fuzhou? Guangzhou?

It has to be a Southern Chinese City with a significant Muslim community.

Sanya?

 

[BananaLee]

It might even be good old Urumqi

 

[Ozbenno]

Or even Kashgar or even X'ian?

 

[W|M]

Tiajin?

 

[Tee Kay]

None of those, though one of you were close though.

He's Thai, not Chinese.

[Tee Kay]

No, though it does end with "zhou".

Fuzhou?

 

[Ozbenno]

Lanzhou

Bonzhou? Dengzhou?

Its probably Lanzhou.

No, though it does end with "zhou".

80% of Chinese cities ends with a "zhou"! It means city for goodness sake!

 

[Tee Kay]

Alright, last clue. It's in Fujian.

Zhangzhou? Quanzhou?

It is Quanzhou.

The city was historically an important seaport, and used to have a large Muslim merchant community. The picture is of the Qingjing Mosque, built in 1009 by Arab traders.
