उत्तर
Fa-hien’s Account of his times: Fa-hien in his book Fo- Kwo-Ki mentions that the City of Pataliputra has two grand monasteries—one of the Hinayana and the other of the Mahayana. He felt amazed to see the grandeur of Ashoka’s Palace which still existed. The capital city was enriched with wealth and prosperity. An excellent hospital was erected in the city which was run by the wealthy citizens of the town. In the large towns and on highways, Rest-houses were situated for the comforts of the travellers. Although the king has a devout Vaisnava, the relations between the followers of various sects were cordial. The people were law-abiding and free from unnecessary restrictions on their movement, they could go wherever they desired to go. The criminal law was mild and the punishment of death remained unknown.
