Wise men came from the East bringing gifts for the child Jesus.
Three gifts were given: - 1. gold 2. frankincense 3. myrhh.
That does not mean there were three wise men. The Bible states three gifts, not three wise men. The wise men would have travelled with a large group accompanying them on their long journey. There may have been 3 wise men or many more, the Bible does not tell us. It only states that 3 gifts were given to the child, Jesus.
Matthew 2:11 tells us the wise men saw the "young child" not a baby. By the time the wise men arrived the Baby Jesus was now a young child. So it stands to reason the wise men had a long journey from the time when they first saw the "star" and by the time of their arrival at "the house" of Mary & Joseph. The wise men went to "to the house", not to the stable.
The gift of Gold represented - a King (Jesus - King of Kings)
the gift of Frankincense - a sweet smelling fragrance to God
the gift of Myrrh - an ointment rubbed over a dead body - this
signified Jesus' death 33 years later.
