Pianta Village



Pianta Village is the ancestral home of the Piantas on Isle Delfino in Super Mario Sunshine. Though many of the Piantas have moved on to Delfino Plaza, some still remain.

Pianta Village is built in the branches of a titanic palm tree to protect it from predators. If you look below, you can find equally mushrooms in the Village Underside. This level is unique in that the time changes between day and night. Odd-numbered episodes take place at night, while even-numbered episodes are completed during the day.

To get there Mario must cross a bamboo bridge or jump off onto the mushrooms. The main route takes Mario to a path where he can follow it all around the village, or he can just cut corners and take short cuts. Near the bridge is a Bee's nest, and sometimes a Yoshi Egg.

To unlock Pianta Village, Mario will need the Rocket Nozzle and 30 Shine Sprites.

Trivia

 * Pianta is Italian for "plant", so Pianta Village translates to "Plant Village".
