Shiladitya (IAST: Śīlāditya) is the title of a 7th-century Indian king mentioned in the writings of the Chinese traveler Xuanzang (Hieun Tsang).
Xuanzang mentions him in Fascicle V of Dà Táng Xīyù Jì (Great Tang Records on the Western Regions).
Over a six year campaign, he subdued the five regions of India (north, west, south, east, central), expanding his army as he won over new territories.
He always divided a day into three periods: one was spent attending to state affairs and two were devoted to performing meritorious deeds and doing good work.
He lived assiduously and the day was too short for him.Xuanzang states in his Fascicle V that Shiladitya was of Vaishya descent, and built colossal stupas and temples dedicated to the Buddha, Surya, and Shiva.
