'''Giant Land'''<ref>''Super Mario Bros. 3'' English instruction booklet, page 32.</ref><ref>''Super Mario Bros. 3'' North American re-release and European ending.</ref> (alternatively '''Big Island''',<ref>''Super Mario Bros. 3'' North American original, ''Super Mario All-Stars'' and ''Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3'' International ending.</ref> the '''Land Of The Giants''',<ref>''Nintendo Power'' Volume 13, pages 3, 8 & 35-42.</ref> the '''Giant World''',<ref>''Nintendo Power'' Volume 13, pages 34 & 37.</ref> or the '''Land of Giants'''<ref>Hodgson, David S J. ''Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3'' Prima's Official Strategy Guide. Page 54.</ref>) is the fourth [[world]] of ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. This world contains six [[level]]s, three [[Sledge Bro]]thers, two [[fortress]]es, two [[Spade Panel]]s, four [[Toad House]]s, and a [[castle]] that has been taken over by an [[airship]]. Everything in this world is huge, including the [[? Block]]s and [[Goomba]]s, and the map itself resembles a giant turtle, hence the name. Power-ups, [[Cheep Cheep|Cheep-Cheep]]s, [[Spiny|Spinies]], [[Buzzy Beetle]]s, [[Fire Piranha Plant|Venus Fire Trap]]s, and [[Bullet Bill]]s are exceptions to this and thus remain in their original size.

 

The map in ''[[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' shows that it is to the east of [[Water Land]] and to the west of [[Sky Land]].

|Three Sledge Brothers roam the map. Encountering one will trigger a battle taking place on a flat stretch of land with two large [[Cloud Block]]s high above it. The reward for defeating one is either a [[Super Star|Starman]], [[Lakitu's cloud]], or [[P-Wing]] depending on which one is fought.

'''[[Sneaky Lying Cheating Giant Ninja Koopas]]''': This is the only episode in which this world is shown as the title card. Bowser wants to take over Giant Land, so he transforms [[Roy Koopa|Bully]], [[Morton Koopa Jr.|Big Mouth]], [[Larry Koopa|Cheatsy]], and [[Ludwig von Koopa|Kooky]] into Sneaky Lying Cheating Giant Ninja Koopas, enabling to storm through Giant Land and capture [[Prince Hugo the Huge]]. Mario and his friends show up at Prince Hugo's castle to offer their help, but the [[Royal Parrot]] dismisses them due to their small size. Mario and Luigi explore Giant Land to find a [[Super Leaf]], evading an [[Angry Sun]] in the process. As [[Raccoon Mario]] and Raccoon Luigi, the brothers head back to the castle, but are unable to stop the Koopalings. They both lose their Raccoon Power and Luigi gets captured, along with [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]], [[Toad]] and Prince Hugo. Mario manages to avoid capture by flying away on the Royal Parrot, whose cage was stolen by the Koopalings to house Princess Toadstool, Toad and Luigi during their capture. He later rescues Prince Hugo and his friends from [[Bowser's Castle|Kastle Koopa]].
