My map is categorized based on Marco Polo\u2019s focus at each location on his journey. The blue markers (Khan-Balik, T’ai-yuan-fu, Si-ngan-fu, Ch’\u00eang-tu-fu) are places where Polo gives a descriptive and detailed account of the location. They\u2019re often the capitals or main trade and industry centers. The locations marked yellow (Cho-chau, P’ing-yang-fu, Ho-chung-fu) are places where Polo valued and discussed the place’s functions more than his commentary about the places. They were almost like a pitstop, and he wasn\u2019t staying for a long time. The locations marked dark red (Kara-moran, Han-chung, Tibet) are places where Polo was focused on or impacted by its terrain and landscape.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
