This may be simplifying things a bit, but for the colors of my points, I based them off of the attitude and general impression Marco Polo was giving off when he encountered a new place. This would generally be based on the people he encountered, which seemingly ruined his experience on multiple occasions. Green are for places he seemed more generally in awe of or respected, due to the wealth and society he encountered. Red are for places where his disgust in the people seemed to create a negative impression and override any natural beauty to be found, and where he notes people to live like “brutes” or “savages” or to be unbearable. Yellow are just for places he really said nothing about or were uninhabited.
