This excerpt is from a manuscript by Marco Polo from circa 1300.
The palace is completely surrounded by a square wall, each side being a mile in length so that the whole circuit is four miles. It is a very thick wall and fully ten paces in height. At each corner of this wall stands a large palace of great beauty and splendor in which the Great Khan keeps his military stores …. Within this wall is the Great Khan’s palace, which I will now describe to you. It is the largest that was ever built. Inside, the walls of the halls and chambers are all covered with gold and silver and decorated with dragons and birds and horsemen and various breeds of beasts and scenes of battle. The ceiling is similarly adorned, so that there is nothing to be seen anywhere but gold and pictures.
