Casa di Marco Polo - Throughout its long and illustrious history, Venice has likely never produced a more renowned or significant figure than Marco Polo. Born in 1254, he began his legendary journey at the young age of 17 and did not return to his hometown for 24 years. During his travels, he covered an incredible 15,000 miles, encountered the notable Kublai Khan, and created the first comprehensive account of a European expedition to China. His writings had a profound impact on cartography and exploration, contributing to the creation of the famous Fra Mauro Map and inspiring Christopher Columbus to embark on his voyage to the Americas. Marco Polo is frequently hailed as the greatest explorer of all time.
