Three days' journey away there stood, at Cianganor, yet 82 MARCO POLO. another palace, whither he retreated when he wearied of the delights of Shandu. This palace was quite as large as the other two, and it had the advantage of being situated on a very broad and beautiful plain, and on the borders of a charm- ing lake. It was here that the khan found the smaller game which it pleased him to hunt when he had got tired of slaughtering tigers and wild- goats; for the woods and lake-side about Cian...- ganor abounded in pheasants, partridges and cranes. Marco, when he went with the khan and his train to this retreat, was especially struck with the cranes that he saw there. They were far more beautiful in form and color than those he had seen in Europe. Some were large, and of a dense, glossy black ; others were white, with their feathers " full of round gold eyes, " like peacocks ; yet others were red and black, and others, again, were gray, with red and black heads. Not far from this palace, in a little valley that descended toward the lake, were a number of small houses, where the khan kept large flocks of partridges.
