Daidu, are so straight and so wide.” Paper money also took him by surprise, since it was not yet in use in the West at that time. Homes were beated with “black stones... which burn like wood.” These stones were coal, and most of the Europeans knew little about it then.
After 17 years in China, Marco and his family finally returned to Venice in 1992. After he returned home, Marco completed a book about his trip, full of facts about his wonderful experiences in China.
