5. Operating (Assembly Instructions)
Follow these steps to assemble your jigsaw puzzle:
- Build the Border: Assemble the edge pieces first to create the frame of the puzzle. Refer to the poster for the correct orientation and shape.

- Assemble Sections: Work on distinct sections of the image, such as the sky, the Colosseum structure, or the foreground elements. Connect these smaller assembled sections to the border and to each other.
- Utilize the Poster: Continuously refer to the included poster for guidance on colors, shapes, and the overall image.
- Use the Hint: If you encounter difficulty, a helpful hint is discreetly placed on the back of the puzzle pieces. This can provide a subtle guide without compromising the challenge.
- Connect All Pieces: Continue assembling until all 300 pieces are interlocked and the full image of the Colosseum is revealed.
