4 Xu made many geographical discoveries during his journey. Once, he
visited Mount Huangshan. People then thought Tiandu Peak was higher
than Lianhua Peak. To find out the truth, Xu climbed both peaks. He
discovered that Lianhua Peak gave a wider view, so it must be higher.
He was right!

Marco Polo was a great traveller from Italy.When he was 17 years old, he went on a long journey to Asia with his dad and uncle on the Silk Road . He wrote a book called The Travels of Marco Polo, which helped people in Europe learn about different cultures and places. People think he is brave and his stories are interesting. Many other travellers are inspired by him.
