Marco Polo was a Venetian merchant and explorer who traveled to China in the 13th century and documented his journey in his book "The Travels of Marco Polo." Christopher Columbus was an Italian explorer who is credited with discovering the Americas in 1492. While both men were explorers, Marco Polo's travels were focused on Asia, while Columbus's voyages were instrumental in opening up the Americas to European exploration and colonization. Additionally, Marco Polo's travels were more focused on trade and cultural exchange, while Columbus's voyages were motivated by a desire to find a new trade route to Asia.
