Who hasn’t played Marco Polo! in the pool before? Of course you have, but it’s not just a pool game, he was a real person – I know, minds blown, right? Marco Polo was the ultimate adventurer – how fun does that sound? And you can learn about all he experienced in 24 years and thousands of miles of exploring at Fernbank Museum right now, during Marco Polo: Man & Myth. You can check out artifacts, artwork, maps and more, from Venice (his homeland) to China (his last destination) and everywhere in between. From a man who has been quoted as saying that people wouldn’t believe all he had seen, I’m thinking this exhibit might be worth a peek.
Price: Free with admission to Fernbank
