Zheng He's translator Ma Huan wrote a detailed description of Majapahit and where the king of Java lived. The report was composed and collected in "Yingya Shenglan", which provides valuable insight on the culture, customs, also various social and economic aspects of "Chao-Wa" (Java) during Majapahit period.
