Although Marco Polo is often credited to be the first European to reach China, his visit in 1264 to 1269 CE was preceded by:

  • The Radhanites (medieval Jewish merchants) who travelled as far as Tang dynasty China before 1000 CE.
  • Andrew of Longjumeau guide a French ambassador to the great Kuyuk Khan in 1249-1251 CE.
  • The Flemish explorer William of Rubruck reached China and Mongolia through Central Asia in about 1254 CE.
