False: Viral video does not show mosque being demolished in China or India

Last updated on November 19th, 2025

Editor’s Note:

In March 2025, we published verification information on social media regarding the video “A mosque is being demolished in China or India.” We have now reorganized and integrated the original content into this long-form report.

Subtitles:

A video that has been widely circulated online since March 11 appears to show the demolition of a mosque. Some posts claim the event took place in China, while others suggest it occurred in India.

However, a reverse image search confirms that the video actually depicts the demolition of a building at Hibisc Fantasy, a theme park in Java, Indonesia.

 

According to multiple Indonesian news outlets, local authorities ordered the closure and demolition of the park, which took place on March 6 and 7.

The park was shut down due to construction violations – exceeding the permitted number of structures – and environmental concerns, as it was believed to have contributed to a flash flood in the area that same week.

 

Verdict:

This video does not show a mosque being demolished in China or India. It shows the demolition of a building at a theme park in Indonesia.
