Overview

Join National Geographic photographer Michael Yamashita as he follows in the footsteps of Marco Polo, the greatest Western explorer of all time.

On the 700th anniversary of this epic journey, we celebrate the man who inspired a bold new age of exploration and discovery, introducing the Eastern and Western hemispheres to each other through his stories of the cultures, arts, and landscapes of the people he met and the places he visited.

Experience Marco Polo’s 13th Century odyssey along the Silk Road, from Italy through Iraq, Iran, and Afghanistan, all the way to China, and his epic voyage back across the South China Sea with stops in Indonesia, Sri Lanka, and India.
