This study examines the matrix of Kant’s cosmopolitan education and suggests that physical geography, from the perspective of travel, holds a crucial place in education. In line with the new cosmopolitanism, which attempts to overcome classical universal and neoliberal global cosmopolitanism, Kant’s cosmopolitan education has been reconsidered from vernacular perspectives but is still regarded as universal moral education. In contrast, this study focuses on Kant’s emphasis on physical geography and scrutinizes the extraordinary role of his physical geography combined with travelling the actual world. Travel enables us to experience this spatial land within and beyond usefulness by knowing the world as both intellectual and moral persons, while we experience the temporal world teleologically. Additionally, we are urged continuously to examine our provisional understanding of the world, such as our understanding of race, in this travel experience. Through this compound travel of physical geography, we can experience ‘a radical wholeness’ of the world and become cosmopolitan, almost reaching the whole world. Thus, physical geography based on travel constitutes a matrix of cosmopolitan education
