A secret pipe can be accessed by Raccoon Mario, too. On the first purple pipe building, he must race back and forth to build up speed, then take off to fly up to a pipe protected by blocks. If he smashes the blocks on either side by flying under them, the pipe will be accessible, which leads to a room with a P-Switch that triggers some Silver Coins!

The oasis is in the shape of the roman numeral "3", as in Super Mario Bros. 3

Desert Land or Desert Hill is the second world of Super Mario Bros. 3. It contains five levels, two Boomerang Bros., a fortress, three Toad Houses, and special Desert and Pyramid stages. Most of the levels have quick sand or Fire Snakes. This is the third and last location of a Warp Whistle.

The two Fire Bros. at the end of the world are some of the rarest enemies in the game. Another rare enemy in this world is the Angry Sun, a creature who drops from the sky to hit Mario. The only occurance of a Tweester in the game is the desert level.

The Koopaling in charge of the golden sands of Desert Land is Morton Koopa Jr.
