Birthplace of the 14th Dalai Lama

Taktser is the Tibetan name of the village Hongya ( Hongaizi in the local dialect), which together with 13 other villages form the community of Shihuiyao of the Hui nationality . Shihuiyao is in Ping'an County , part of Haidong City in Qinghai Province in the People's Republic of China . Despite its Chinese-speaking environment for centuries, the area is part of the Tibetan cultural region of Amdo . Taktser is about 50 km southeast of the Buddhist Kumbum monastery and about 20 km southwest of the large community of Ping'an , where the seat of government of the district of the same name is.

Taktser became famous as a village because the 14th Dalai Lama was born here . At that time the village was called Qijiachuan , which means "River of the Qi Family". Qi was the Chinese family name of the Dalai Lama's family.
