Vasco da Gama sailed from Portugal to India, becoming the first European to reach India by sea. His historic voyage began in 1497, leading him around the Cape of Good Hope and up the eastern coast of Africa before arriving at Calicut (Kozhikode) on the Indian subcontinent. This journey established a direct maritime route between Europe and Asia, significantly impacting trade and exploration.
