Marco Polo's Guide to Afghanistan Two Americans retrace the steps of the 13th-century Italian merchant through a harsh land of tough, hospitable people "Of the countries we traveled through," says photographer Denis Belliveau, "Afghanistan most resembled the account by Marco Polo," the 13th-century Venetian merchant whose journal still fascinates readers today. During the window of time in the 1990s after Soviet troops left Afghanistan and before the Taliban took control, Belliveau and fellow explorer Francis O’Donnell followed Polo’s route through Afghanistan and 20 other countries, traveling 33,000 miles over two years in jeeps, trains and rickshas, and on horse and camel. They are almost certainly the first to approximate Polo’s steps through Eurasia entirely by land and sea, without resorting to helicopters or airplanes. Easy targets in a region long bedeviled by war and violence, Belliveau and O’Donnell donned traditional shalwar-kameez (long shirts and baggy pants)

Index Biography Explorers of the Millennium Our web site, "Explorers of the Millennium," will provide students with a wealth of information about the most important explorers of the past thousand years in a simple, easy-to-use format. We included reports on nineteen explorers, chosen by members of our team. We organized the explorers on separate "Hall of Fame" and "Timeline" web pages, so that users can look for a particular explorer by name or by century. We have a links page to help students find other helpful Web sites that relate to the explorers selected. A quiz section gives visitors a chance to see what they know about some of our explorers. A feedback page invites visitors to submit their own nominations for our Explorers' Hall of Fame. We hope that a visit to "Explorers of the Millennium" will answer students' questions about explorers, lead them to new sources of information, and encourage them to think critically about which explorers were the "greatest" and why.

Marco Polo This web page was Researched, Written, and Created by Katie A Biography of Marco Polo Marco Polo was born in Venice in 1254, (though the month and day are not known) where his father (Niccolo) was a merchant. At the age of seventeen he accompanied his father and uncle on their travels to China and many countries in between for the Great Kahn Kublai, who wanted to know of the religions of his subjects so he could worship the right god. Marco was probably the most popular Polo because he noticed that Kublai was often bored with the other people of his court and would rather listen to stories of faraway places. Because of this Marco wrote of his travels for the Kahn. As a result Kublai made him his personal representative and sent him to explore. The journey lasted 24 years and was about 15,000 miles long. When the Polos returned they were jailed because Genoa was at war with the Polo's hometown Italy. When in jail Marco's cell mate wrote what Marco dictated about his travels in his famous book, Descriptions of the World . This is now known as Travels.

The TARDIS materialises at the Roof of the World, Central Asia, in 1289. There they meet Marco Polo and his fellow travellers, on their mammoth journey across the Pamir Plateau and through the Gobi desert to Peking. Unfortunately for the Doctor, his Ship proves to be of immense interest to Polo, who sets his mind on presenting it to the mighty Kublai Khan on arrival at his court. But Polo isn’t the only one with designs on the TARDIS. The war-like Tegana will go to any lengths to steal the magical blue box – lengths which endanger the lives of all the travellers. When the Doctor meets Kublai Khan himself, his precious Ship is his only collateral in a high-stakes game of backgammon – and Khan is a master of the gameÂ

The similarity of the explorer's work, Million, to the selection of dishes here is no coincidence. The Marco Polo restaurant opened in May of last year, taking its name from one of the eponymous traveler's expeditions. It is inspired by food preparation methods in France, Italy, and Thailand, with the future emphasis intended to be on French cuisine. "Our main goal is to serve meals of high quality, prepared from fresh ingredients - meats, fish, and seafoods - of which few restaurants in Prague can boast. These great tasting, creatively adorned specialties need not be exorbitantly priced," says head chef and restaurant manager TomᚠTurek. "We focus mainly on a local clientele, but tourists often visit us, too," he adds.
