The Travels of Marco Polo

Travel to China with Marco Polo! You’ll immerse yourself in the traveler’s personal observations of the country’s customs, government institutions, and everyday life—almost unknown in Europe at the time. It is from this book that many Europeans first learned about the countries of the East, their natural riches, and technological achievements—paper money, the printing block, the sago palm, the compass, and the bill of exchange, as well as coal and the whereabouts of coveted spices. This work inspired Christopher Columbus to discover America and significantly influenced the course of world history!

The audio version will take you to China’s distant past and captivate you from the very first minutes, because Marco Polo’s stories—however unbelievable they may seem—are not a fairy tale, but true events!
