Wooded Kingdom
Wooded kingdom information
The Wooded Kingdom is one of the two kingdoms that becomes available after completing the Sand Kingdom. The player is given the choice between traveling to the Lake Kingdom or the Wooded Kingdom first, making the Wooded Kingdom either the fourth or fifth kingdom in the game, depending on which is selected first. The Wooded Kingdom also contains the Deep Woods.
The Living Factory
No one knows who built the giant machines dotting this land, but today the Steam Gardeners use them to maintain the greatest flower gardens in the world. The giant dome is climate-controlled and apparently self-sufficient, operating with no maintenance since ancient times.
Guardians of Paradise
Visitors are welcomed not only by the humid air, but worker robots tending the flowers. They're known as Steam Gardeners, longtime residents of the kingdom. You'll be impressed at how long they can work without rest, maintaining themselves perfectly. But beyond being hard workers, the robots love flowers—some grow them right out of their heads! You'll feel the Steam Gardeners' warm hearts, from their flowers and also their internal steam pumps.
Flowers as a Way of Life
While you'll see amazing flowers on any visit, you might be lucky enough to see the famous Steam Gardens Soirée Bouquet. It features giant white flowers that charm all who lay eyes on it. As you might guess from the name, it's by far the most popular bouquet for wedding ceremonies, sought after by wedding planners the world over.
A Deep Wood's Secret
It doesn't appear on any tours, but there is an area untouched by the machines of the Steam Gardens. Here the trees grow quickly, barely allowing any light through. The Steam Gardeners do not speak of it, but rumor has it they discourage visiting this place because of the danger posed by the giant creatures that call it home.
A Growing Walkway
Be sure to try the system of paths called the Flower Road. You'll marvel at plants growing into temporary but walkable bridges. Watch your step, though—nature has no handrails.
Birds NOT of a Feather
Local birds here seem remarkably fond of their mechanical neighbors.
3 keys to the kingdom
- Smell the flowers not that you can miss them but do savor the scent
- Admire the steam gardeners and their impressive devotion to their work
- Appreciate machines and nature living in exquisite harmony
