Is it true that Marco Polo traveled to China in the thirteenth century and served at Kublai Khan's court?

Yes. Multiple reference works state that Marco Polo journeyed from Venice to China in the thirteenth century and spent years at Kublai Khan's court in his service, though several items cover only the journey and not the court service.
