We can trace some travel destinations since ancient times as follows: • In the fourth century . (before Christ), work started on the Great Wall of China and continued for centuries until the 1600s. Although not a tourist destination (or attraction) back then, it certainly is today. • In 776 ., athletic games were held on the plain of Olympia in Greece (the modern Olympic Games were inspired by these games), and presumably people traveled there to participate or to watch. • The Romans liked to visit the Bay of Naples, so they built a road there from Rome in 312 . (anno Domini, after Christ). The road was 100 miles long and took four days by litter to get there (in which a nobleperson sat on a platform and was carried by some unfortunate servants). • Religious pilgrimages to Rome and the Holy Land (now Israel) began in the 1200s, so inns sprang up to feed and accommodate the pilgrims. • Marco Polo became the first noted European business traveler as he pioneered trade .
