Landmarks, trams and pigeons: a varied collection
Every page captures a different side of Milan. You'll find the Duomo with its forest of pointed spires, the elegant glass-roofed Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, and the famous La Scala opera house. Modern architecture fans will enjoy the Bosco Verticale, the towers covered in trees and plants. For something more relaxed, try the Navigli canal, the old yellow tram rattling through the streets, or the Sforza Castle with its brick walls and towers. Our favorite for little ones: the pigeons on Piazza del Duomo, a cheerful scene with simple shapes. Each drawing has clean, clear lines, so detailed buildings stay readable and fun rather than frustrating.
Tips for printing and coloring
Print on standard letter-size paper in portrait or landscape, depending on the page. For markers or watercolor pencils, choose a heavier paper of about 24 lb or more to prevent bleeding. Younger children (3-6) do best with chunky crayons and the simpler scenes like the pigeons or the tram. Older kids can tackle the Duomo's spires and the Galleria's arches with fine-tip pens and shading. Try starting with the large areas, such as sky and walls, then add details like windows and statues. Turn it into a game by looking up photos of Milan and matching the real colors.

Coloring ideas for Milan
Use warm cream, soft pink and pale gray for the Duomo's marble, with a blue sky behind its spires. Paint the old tram in orange or yellow, the Sforza Castle in terracotta red brick, and the Bosco Verticale in several shades of green. Add golden light to the Galleria's glass roof, deep red and gold inside La Scala, and gray and white pigeons on the square.

How do I print these pages at home?
Open the page, choose the print option, and select letter size (8.5 x 11 in) at 100% scale. Any home inkjet or laser printer works. For markers or paint, use thicker paper to avoid bleed-through, and choose black-and-white mode to save ink.

What is the Bosco Verticale shown in the collection?
The Bosco Verticale, or Vertical Forest, is a pair of residential towers in Milan covered with thousands of trees and plants on their balconies. It's a fun page to color in many greens and a great way to talk about nature in cities.
