Europeans reached Asia primarily through exploration and trade during the Age of Exploration in the 15th and 16th centuries. They sought new trade routes to access valuable goods like spices, silk, and precious metals, leading to the establishment of maritime routes and the eventual colonization of parts of Asia. Notable figures such as Vasco da Gama and Ferdinand Magellan played key roles in connecting Europe with Asia, facilitating cultural exchanges and economic interactions that significantly shaped global history.
