Marco Polo in Mongoila


Marco Polo wrote of Western Mongolia as a land of “barren of hope in spite of its existence.” Marco Polo met the Great Khan in Mongolia. The Great Khan became a really good friend to Marco Polo. Marco Polo mostly impressed by the way in which the women got on with the lion's share of the work:"the men do not bother themselves about anything but hunting and warfare and falconry."
