Explanation

Vikramaditya (Chandragupta II, 380-415 CE) received the Chinese Buddhist monk Fa-Hien (Faxian) who visited India during 399-412 CE. Fa-Hien came to study Buddhist scriptures and visit holy sites, spending six years at Pataliputra alone. His travelogue provides valuable insights into early 5th century India during the Gupta golden age.
