The Travels of Marco Polo — Volume 2

Note {1} — Chapter LXVIII

Henry Yule translation

Note 1.—Though the text would lead us to look for Tiju on the direct line between Kao-yu and Yang-chau, and like them on the canal bank (indeed one MS., C. of Pauthier, specifies its standing on the same river as the cities already passed, i.e. on the canal), we seem constrained to admit the general opinion that this is Tai-chau, a town lying some 25 miles at least to the eastward of the canal, but apparently connected with it by a navigable channel.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
