Thriller

A Record of Buddhistic Kingdoms is a travelogue written by the Chinese Buddhist monk Faxian in the early 5th century. It chronicles his journey from China to India and other regions of South Asia between 399 and 414 CE in search of sacred Buddhist texts. Faxian's account offers valuable insights into the cultural, religious, and political landscapes of the time.

Throughout his travels, he visits numerous Buddhist monasteries, temples, and sacred sites, describing their architecture, practices, and the daily lives of the people. Faxian also provides detailed observations on the countries he passes through, including Central Asia, India, and Sri Lanka, highlighting the widespread influence of Buddhism. His observations help to illuminate the conditions of Buddhist communities in these regions during the early centuries of the Common Era.

Faxian’s work is significant not only for its religious content but also for its historical and geographical details, offering scholars a window into ancient South Asia and the spread of Buddhism. His meticulous descriptions provide a rare firsthand perspective on the development of Buddhist practice and the connections between East Asia and the Indian subcontinent during this era.
