In Hiuen Tsang's account, Nalanda appears as what?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Centre of higher Buddhist learning

The correct answer is C. Hiuen Tsang, the Chinese Buddhist pilgrim Xuanzang, visited India in the seventh century and described Nalanda as a major centre of advanced Buddhist learning. His account refers to monasteries, teachers, students, debates, and disciplined study, making Nalanda an important source for understanding higher education and Buddhist intellectual life in the period associated with Harsha and other north Indian rulers. A Harappan dockyard belongs to a much earlier civilisation, B is a military interpretation unrelated to Nalanda’s principal function, and D incorrectly places it among Mauryan administrative institutions. The traveller’s description clearly supports the educational and monastic identity of Nalanda.
