v2.c23.s1.1

The narrative in the Records proceeds to relate that from Tsao-ku-t'a Yuan-chuang travelled north for more than 500 li to Fu-li-shih-sa-t'ang-na. This country is described as being above 2000 li from east to west and 1000 li from north to south; its capital called Hu-pi-na was above 20 li in circuit. The country and its people were like Tsao-ku-t'a but with a different language; the climate was cold and the people were violent; their king was a Turk and a zealous Buddhist.
