About This Novel

The eminent monk Faxian of the Eastern Jin Dynasty was the first Chinese to reach ancient India and bring back Buddhist scriptures. Based on Fa Xian's "Records of the Buddha Country" as the background, this book combines cultural relics with historical documents through on-site inspections of the Huangshui Valley, Loulan Ancient City Ruins, Rewak Buddhist Temple Ruins, Gion Monastery Ruins, Wuwei Shan Temple Pagoda and other places along Fa Xian's westward journey. It unfolds the humanistic history along Fa Xian's Road before our eyes with pictures and texts, and provides an intuitive, vivid and unique perspective for related research.
