I-tsing (671-695 AD) : A Chinese traveller, he visited India in connection with Buddhism.
I-tsing left for India from Canton by sea in 671, arriving in India in 673. After visiting the sacred Buddhist sites in Magadha, he resided at the great Nalanda monastery for ten years (676-685), devoting himself to the study of the Vinya. He left India in 685 for the city of Shri Bhoja (or Sri Boja, known as Shri Vijaya, ie Palembang in Sumatra), which at that time was very much under the cultural influence of India. Here he devoted himself to the translation of Buddhist Sanskrit texts.
