…His main interest was the holy sites and the pilgrimage to Mecca, and this section alone takes up more than one-third of the entire work. Other works include the Travel Report of Ibn Fadlan, one of the envoys sent to the Volga region by the Abbasid Caliph in 921, the China-India Travelogue of Abū Dulaf (years of birth and death unknown), the Chinese envoy of the Samanid Sultan (c. 942), the travelogues of Abū Ḥāmid (1080-1169), a traveler born in Granada, the travelogues of Ibn Sa'id (1213-86), also born in Spain, and the travelogues of Abd al-Lateef (1216-1220), born in Baghdad. Representative works include the intellectual Egyptian Voyage by al-Laṭīf (1162-1231), the Anatolian-Turkish Voyage of Amir Yash-Beg under the Mamluk dynasty, and the Hijaz Voyage by Mamluk sultan Qa'it Bay (reigned 1468-96). Other works in Arabic include the Safar Nama (Persian) by the Balkh-born Persian Nasir Khosrow (1003-61) and the travelogue (Turkish) by the Ottoman military traveler Evliya Çelebi (1611-84). Although there are fewer works than in other genres, there are more than 20 travel writings in the Islamic world in the Middle Ages alone.
