There are many resemblances between FA-HIEN'S description of the Onion mountains, and HSüAN-CHUANG'S description of the Pamirs, the valley of Po-mi-lo.2 Fa-hien says: »The snow rests on them both winter and summer», Hsüan-chuang : »The snow falls both in summer and spring-time». Fa-hien speaks of »poisonous winds», Hsüan-chuang tells us that »the winds blow constantly .... Night and day the wind rages violently». Fa-hien has observed the »storms of sand and gravel», Hsüan-chuang finds the soil »covered with quantities of gravel and sand». Fa-hien states that »the people of the country call the range (Ts ung-ling) by the name of the Snow mountains», whereas Hsüan-chuang remarks the Po-mi-lo (Pamir) »is situated among the snowy mountains». Fa-hien has heard wonderful stories of »venomous dragons, which, when provoked» do all sorts of harm. Hsüan-chuang notes that »in the middle of the Pamir valley is a great dragon lake», where dragons and wild animals hide. Fa-hien takes us »across and through the range of the Onion mountains (Ts`ung-ling)», and Hsüan-chuang says of the dragon lake: »It is situated in the midst of the great T sung-ling mountains.»
