In 1275, Marco Polo arrived in Beijing. He met the emperor and worked for him for 17 years. The Chinese discovered coal and invented paper. Marco Polo brought some back to Italy. He also brought back a lot of silk, tea, and other goods. These things were new to Italians.

My trip
My trip is so much fun,
In the sun, we all run,
Climbing mountains big and tall,
And splashing in a waterfall,
My heart is filled with joy galore,
