Travels of Fah-Hian and Sung-Yun, Buddhist Pilgrims: From China to India 400 A.D. and 518 A.D. is a historical travelogue written by Samuel Beal in 1869. It is based on the accounts of two Chinese pilgrims, Fah-Hian and Sung-Yun, who traveled to India in the 5th and 6th centuries AD to explore the roots of Buddhism. The book is divided into two parts, each describing the journey of one of the pilgrims. Fah-Hian's journey takes place in 400 AD, while Sung-Yun's journey takes place in 518 AD. The book provides a detailed account of their travels, including the places they visited, the people they met, and the customs and traditions they observed. The book also sheds light on the state of Buddhism in India during that time, and the various Buddhist monasteries and temples they visited. It describes the various Buddhist sects that existed in India at that time, and the differences between them. Overall, Travels of Fah-Hian and Sung-Yun, Buddhist Pilgrims is a fascinating account of two Chinese pilgrims' journey to India in search of spiritual enlightenment. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Buddhism or the cultural exchange between China and India in ancient times.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
