威尼斯是意大利東海岸對東方貿(mào)易的三大港口之一，其余的兩個是它南邊的巴利和北邊的特利斯提。在它的繁盛的時代，就是公元后十三世紀，那時是中國的元朝，有個商人名叫馬可·波羅曾到過中國，在揚州作過官。他在中國住了二十多年，回到威尼斯之后，寫了一本游記，極稱中國文物之盛。在他的游記里，曾仔細地描寫過盧溝橋，因此直到現(xiàn)在，歐洲人還把盧溝橋稱作馬可波羅橋。
Venice is one of the three major ports in the east coast of Italy which focus on the trade with the Orient, and the other two are the port of Bari to its south and the port of Trieste to its north. Venice enjoyed its prosperity during the 13th century, which corresponded with the Yuan dynasty in China. Marco Polo, a merchant from Venice, visited China at that time, and worked as a government official in Yangzhou. Marco Polo had lived in China for more than twenty years, and when he came back to Venice, he wrote a book of travels in which he spoke highly of China’s rich cultural relics. In his book, he carefully described the Lugou Bridge and that is why it’s still called the Marco Polo Bridge by Europeans up until now.
