Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The famous Chinese travellers who visited India were Fa Hein (405-411 A.D.), Hiuen Tsang (630-645 AD), and I-Tsing (671-695 AD). Among these ancient travellers, Hiuen Tsang visited India during King Harshavardha Harsha I’s reign. He is also called the Prince of Pilgrims.
Detailed explanation-2: -The Chinese pilgrim Hiuen-Tsang, who visited Orissa in the 7th century AD, described Chelitalo as a busy port. The port has been identified with Konark, Puri and (perhaps most likely) with the archeological site of Manikpatna. By the 7th century AD the city was a noted seat of Mahayana Buddhism.
