'''The Great Tree''' is a giant tree in the game ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. Its interior serves as the third main location in the game. It is located in [[Boggly Woods]] and is the home of the [[Puni|Puni tribe]]. When [[Mario]] first arrives here, the entrance is sealed by a strange, metal door, which prompts him to take [[Punio]] to see Flurrie; the door is a result of the [[X-Naut]]s residing in the tree. There is actually a secret entrance to the Great Tree's interior. Mario must use [[Flurrie]] to blow away the "paper" that covers this entrance, which Punio proceeds to enter, prompting him to open the sealed door that Mario can walk through. However, the secret entrance is anything but secret as it is labeled "Secret Entrance" and is surrounded by flashing lights.

==Trivia==

*In the room where the player has to hammer the switches to gain access to the Super Boots room, in the Japanese version the 4 statues all have Punis on them before hitting the switches, but in the international versions the 4 statues have the following (left to right) on them before hitting the switches: Puni, Star, Moon, Sun.

**Additionally, on page 39 of the Official Nintendo Player's Guide, the 4 statues all have Punis on them just like in the Japanese version.
