Ta'er Monastery (also named Kumbum in Tibetan)is located in the bottom of the Lotus Mountain in the southwestern corner of Lusha'er Town in Huangzhong County of Xining, which is 26 gilometers from Xining . It is very convenient for you to go there from Xining: There are buses between Xining and Huangzhong every 10 minutes for 4 Yuan per person.
Besides, there are private cars of Xiali and Santana to charge you no more than 30 Yuan one-way, and you can bargin about the price but by a small margin. If you choose this kind of private taxi, you can ask them to wait for you an hour for the price of 70-80 Yuan as the whole journey. However, you should spend more if you need them to wait for more than two hours. Otherwise, when turning back, there are also regular buses for working-class in the parking area in front of Ta'er Monastery with the weakness of long time waiting and slowly speeding for the price of 4 Yuan. And also you can pick up the taxi in the parking area for the price of 20-30 or five Yuan per person.
