On the other hand, Marco describes other aspects of Far Eastern life in much detail: [[Banknote|paper money]], the [[Grand Canal of China|Grand Canal]], the structure of a Mongol army, [[tiger]]s, the Imperial postal system. He also refers to Japan by its Chinese name "[[Jipangu|Zipang]]" or Cipangu. This is usually considered the first mention of [[Japan]] in Western literature. However, it is possible that Marco heard of these things from Arab [[silk road]] traders. Trade between the Middle East and Far East was flourishing and travellers are often happy to retell stories of their ventures in great detail.
 
In his defense, much of what he did not mention is circumstantial and there are no known arguments today to refute any of the descriptions he wrote about. Additionally, Marco gives a detailed account of accompanying an embassy from China to the Khan of Persia and of the delivery of Princess Kökechin for marriage to the Khan. Both Chinese and Persian annals mention this mission and include the names of the envoys; but the additional information about the journey which Marco provides is such that, one can with reason assume, he could only have known if he had been a member of that embassy.
 
Marco Polo is also believed to have described a bridge that later was the site of the [[Marco Polo Bridge Incident]], a battle that marked the beginning of the [[Sino-Japanese War (1937-1945)|Second Sino-Japanese War]].

Marco Polo's description of the Far East and its riches inspired [[Christopher Columbus]]'s decision to try to reach those lands by a western route. A heavily annotated copy of Polo's book was among the belongings of Columbus.
 
Legend has it that Marco Polo introduced to Italy some products from China, including [[ice cream]], the [[piñata]] and [[pasta]], especially [[spaghetti]]. However these legends are not grounded in fact, and Pasta on the Italian peninsula can be traced back to the 400 BC through decorations found on a [[Etruscan]] tomb.
 
The name '''Marco Polo''' was also given to a children's game ([[Marco Polo (game)|Marco Polo]]), a story in the [[science fiction]] series ''[[Doctor Who]]'' ([[Marco Polo (Doctor Who)|Marco Polo]]) and a three-masted [[clipper ship]] built in Saint John, New Brunswick, in 1851. The fastest ship of her day, [[Marco Polo (ship)|''Marco Polo'']] was the first ship to sail around the world in under six months. Several ships of the Italian navy were named ''Marco Polo''. The airport in [[Venice, Italy|Venice]] is named [[Marco Polo International Airport]]. See also the [[Marcopolo]] satellites.
