VOYAGE

A Chinese woman polishes models of the full fleet of the Ming Dynasty led by Chinese eunuch explorer Cheng Ho, also known as Zheng He.

Cheng completed seven voyages between 1405 and 1433 that took him as far as the mouth of the Red Sea and the east coast of Africa. He led a huge fleet of more than 100 ships and 25 000 men to 30 countries.
