Danzan Ravjaa lived from 1803-1856 and was a revered figure in Mongolia although little known in the West. He established Khamariin Khiid in the 1830s – not only was it a place of religion but also a cultural and academic centre housing 500 permanent residents at its peak. The compound consisted of four colleges, which taught general studies, astronomy, art, and theatre.
Danzan Ravjaa opened a popular children’s school training children as artists, sculptors, singers and dancers as well as giving basic and vocational training. Danzan Ravjaa also established a large library in the monastery with books he collected during his extensive travels across Mongolia, China and Tibet.
