大唐西域記 2.31-32

2.31

濫波國，周千餘里，北背雪山，三垂黑嶺。國大都城周十餘里。自數百年，王族絕嗣，豪傑力競，無大君長，近始附屬迦畢試國。宜粳稻，多甘蔗，林樹雖眾，果實乃少。氣序漸溫，微霜無雪。國俗豐樂，人尚歌詠，志性怯弱，情懷詭詐，更相欺誚，未有推先。體貌卑小，動止輕躁。多衣白㲲，所服鮮飾。伽藍十餘所，僧徒寡少，並多習學大乘法教。天祠數十，異道甚多。

The kingdom of Lan-po is about 1000 li in circuit, and on the north is backed by the Snowy Mountains; on three sides it is surrounded by the Black-ridge Mountains. The capital of the country is about 10 li in circuit. As for some centuries the royal family has been extinct, the chiefs have disputed for power among themselves, without the acknowledged superiority of any one in particular. Lately it has become tributary to Kapiśa. The country is adapted for the production of rice, and there are many forests of sugar-cane. The trees, though they produce many fruits, yet few are ripened. The climate is backward; the hoar-frosts are plenty, but not much snow. In common there is abundance and contentment. The men (people) are given to music. Naturally they are untrustworthy and thievish; their disposition is exacting one over the other, and they never give another the preference over themselves. In respect of stature they are little, but they are active and impetuous. Their garments are made of white linen for the most part, and what they wear is well appointed. There are about ten sanghārāmas, with few followers (priests). The greater portion study the Great Vehicle. There are several scores of different Deva temples. There are few heretics. Going south-east from this country 100 li or so, we cross a great mountain (ridge), pass a wide river, and so come to Na-kie-lo-ho [the frontiers of North India].

從此東南行百餘里，踰大嶺，濟大河，至那揭羅曷國（北印度境）。
