大唐西域記 1.28

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [1.28](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2087.1.28)

跋祿迦國，東西六百餘里，南北三百餘里。國大都城周五六里。土宜氣序，人性風俗，文字法則同屈支國，語言少異。細氈細褐，隣國所重。伽藍數十所，僧徒千餘人，習學小乘教說一切有部。

> The kingdom of Poh-luh-kia is about 600 li from east to west, and 300 li or so from north to south. The chief town is 5 or 6 li in circuit. With regard to the soil, climate, character of the people, the customs, and literature (laws of composition), these are the same as in the country of K'iu-chi. The language (spoken language) differs however a little. It produces a fine sort of cotton and hair-cloth, which are highly valued by neighbouring (frontier) countries. There are some ten sanghârâmas here; the number of priests (priests and followers) is about one thousand. These follow the teaching of the "Little Vehicle," and belong to the school of the Sarvâstivâdas (Shwo-yih-tsai-yu-po).
