'''Picture City''' (French: '''''La Cité des Images''''' – '''''The City of Images''''') is the fourth world in [[Rayman 1|the original ''Rayman'' game]]. It consists of a land mainly made up of drawing materials, but [[Rayman]] will still find himself twice on the stage of a theatre. As he makes progress among [[eraser]]s, tables, pencils, [[yin-yang]]s, writing chalks and pens, he has to jump onto [[pencil sharpener]]s, dodging the [[drawing pin]]s that stand in his way. Danger is omnipresent, as shown by the ink-covered [[eraser]]s placed above the void, on which slipping down is irremediably followed by a deadly fall. [[Rayman]] must also pass over an ink sea as soon as he arrives, and he will find ink pots and paint buckets as he moves forward. In the ''[[Rayman Junior]]'' games, boxes full of ink, gouache tubes and [[palette]]s are part of this scenery. [[Rayman]] will also find his [[Super helicopter]] power, which will help him to pass through this strange world.

The enemies in Picture City are [[Antitoon]]s, [[hunter]]s, and [[Pirate (Picture City)|pirates]]. The boss is [[Space Mama]], a large woman with blonde hair. [[Rayman]] will fight her first in [[Eraser Plains]], and the final battle will take place in [[Space Mama's Crater]].
 
Once [[Rayman]] has defeated [[Space Mama]], [[Mr Dark]] captures [[Betilla]] the Fairy.

[[2D Nightmare]] is the twelfth and final minigame in ''[[Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc]]''. It is exclusive to the Nintendo GameCube version and is meant to be unlocked upon connecting the GameCube and the [[Rayman 3 (Game Boy Advance)|Game Boy Advance version]] of the game with all levels complete via a link cable. Due to a bug the game never registers the final level, [[Heart of the Ancients]], as complete thus rendering it impossible to unlock the minigame without cheats on either the Gamecube or Gameboy Advance versions.

In [[Rayman Raving Rabbids (Game Boy Advance)|the Game Boy Advance version of ''Rayman Raving Rabbids'']], which was based on [[Rayman 4 (cancelled prototype)|the cancelled ''Rayman 4'' prototype]], a land known as the [[Child (world)|Child world]] appears. The Child world seems to be a combination of Picture City and [[the World of Toys]], two lands which were planned to appear in ''Rayman 4''.
At one point, the developers at [[Phoenix Interactive Entertainment|Phoenix Interactive]] were considering the option of having [[Rayman]] return to Picture City, along with other locations from [[Rayman 1|the original game]], during [[Rayman 4 (cancelled prototype)|his fourth outing]]. Some concept artwork was produced, depicting Picture City as it would appear in a 3D game. However, ''Rayman 4'' was ultimately cancelled.
