Explore the Marco Polo exhibition in Shanghai

Among the exhibits are documents, prints, silk, glass and ceramic artifacts, coins, paintings and so on. Institutions from Italy presented a large number of precious historical documents such as the will of Marco Polo, and exhibits from the Chinese institutions featured communications between East and West, such as merchandise in the trade, maritime maps and navigational tools.

Shanghai Museum and the City of Venice jointly presented The Worlds of Marco Polo: The Journey of a 13th Century Venetian Merchant at Doge's Palace in Venice from Apr 6 to Sep 29.
