宋代奉使交聘成为宋朝与周边国家和民族交往的重要手段,既有高昌、交阯、大理、唃厮啰等臣属国,也有与宋先后并存的辽、金等少数民族政权。使臣出于各种不同的目的创作行记,以行程为线索,记载出使途中的经历。从现在留存下来的行记文献记载来看,出使人员是一个人数构成众多,级别设置严格,分工明确的团体;从出发,沿途所经州郡、抵达目的地、返程都受到双方政府的高度重视;行程的时间长短,路线安排都有严格的规定。这批域外行记成为我们了解宋代的域外旅行文化的重要文本。 The Song Dynasty made it an important means for the Song Dynasty to engage with neighboring countries and ethnic groups in the Song Dynasty. Both Song and Jin ethnic minorities such as Gaochang, Dalai, Dali and Zhesi, and other Liao and Jin ethnic groups coexisted with the Song Dynasty. Envoys create their own records for different purposes and use itinerary as a clue to document their experiences on the way. From the records of the existing records kept in mind, the outgoing staff is a large number of people, the level set strictly, a clear division of labor; from the starting, along the county, arrived at the destination, the return is subject to the height of both governments Attention; the length of the journey, route arrangements have strict rules. These extracurricular activities have become an important text for us to understand the traveling culture outside the territory of the Song Dynasty.
