Marco Polo and the Great Khan Quest in China's Lands
In 1298 Genoa captured Venetian Marco Polo among 7,000 prisoners. His tale of extensive travels from Constantinople to Pekin impressed Rusticiano and fueled legends of Prester John. Polo’s journeys with his father Nicola and uncle Maffeo via Ormuz to Kashgar and Cambaluc shaped Western views of Cathay and the Mongol world, influencing later discovery myths and European curiosity.
