<< review queue entry 52768 - submitted by 'richwarm' >> Taiwan Panorama 馬來西亞古城麻六甲市中心的三保山，相傳是三保太監鄭和下南洋時的軍隊駐紮地 "Sanbao" Hill in the center of the ancient Malaysian city of Malacca, is said to be where the troops of the "Sanbao Eunuch" (Zheng He's official title) were quartered when the fleet came by. 發現《三寶（保）太監西洋記通俗演義》（約完成於一五九七年），在結構上居然與《西遊記》有類似之處。 I realized that Xiyang Ji ("A Popular Romance of the Westward Voyages of the Eunuch Sanbao," completed around 1597) is somewhat similar in structure to Journey to the West. Wikipedia - He was initially called Ma Sanbao: either 三寶 (lit. "Three Gifts") or 三保 (lit. "Three Protections", both pronounced sān bǎo) - In 1431, Zheng He was bestowed with the title "Sanbao Taijian". - Zheng He was also known as "Sanbao" during the time of service in the household of the Prince of Yan. This name was a reference to the Three Jewels (triratna) in Buddhism. |
