| The '''Golden Pyramid''' is a location in ''[[Wario Land 4]]'' that was once ruled by [[Princess Shokora]].<ref>{{cite|language=en-us|title=''[[Wario Land 4]]'' instruction booklet|page=6|quote=When I read the article, I learned that the ruins held the buried pyramid where the princess Shokora, who once ruled this area, had been put into a cursed sleep by the arrogant, selfish, money-crazed Golden Diva.|date=2001|publisher=Nintendo of America}}</ref> However it has been taken over by the [[Golden Diva]], the game's main antagonist. Wario visits the pyramid deep within a jungle after he reads an article in ''[[The Nintendo News]]'' about the "legendary treasure" hidden there. In the game's intro, Wario follows a [[Kuro Neko|black cat]] to the pyramid's entrance, and he falls down a precipice in the pyramid, landing at the [[Entry Passage]] to commence the first level of the game. Other locations in the Golden Pyramid include the [[Emerald Passage]], [[Ruby Passage]], [[Topaz Passage]], [[Sapphire Passage]], [[Sound Room]], [[Mini-Game Shop]], and [[Item Shop (Wario Land 4)|Item Shop]].

|
| The pyramid contains a [[Sound Room]] and six passages, each with a boss and either two or four levels. [[Switch (Wario Land 4)|Switches]] are found before each level, which open up a [[vortex]] to transport Wario to another world away from the Golden Pyramid. [[Treasure chest]]s and pieces of jewellery are recovered after defeating each boss, and these are later found with the final boss, the [[Golden Diva]]. Once she is defeated, the Golden Pyramid begins to crumble. Wario hauls the treasure in a sack and follows the black cat out of the pyramid, watching it disappear in the ground. It is then revealed that the black cat is [[Princess Shokora]], who thanks Wario and is lifted into the sky by four cherubim who take her to the afterlife. | | ==Trivia== |
| | * The Pyramid made a small minor appearace in [[WarioWare: Twisted!]], as a picture in the opening cutscene. |

|
| The Golden Pyramid makes a minor appearance in ''[[WarioWare: Twisted!]]'' as a picture in the opening cutscene, along with the Music Box from ''[[Wario Land 3]]''. A similar picture appears in ''[[WarioWare: Get It Together!]]'' as one of the possible obstructions in Level 3 of the [[microgame]] [[Where Goes the Nose?]]

| The Golden Pyramid also refers to the final area of the game, which rises out of the ground to reveal a door once the player has cleared the five passages preceding it. It contains a single level, the [[Golden Passage]], followed by the final boss, the [[Golden Diva]].
