A famous European traveler to Cathay was Marco Polo, a Venetian merchant and explorer. He journeyed to China in the late 13th century, spending nearly 25 years there and serving in the court of Kublai Khan. His accounts of his travels, detailed in "The Travels of Marco Polo," provided Europeans with some of the first comprehensive insights into Asian cultures and geography. His stories sparked interest in trade with the East and influenced future exploration.
