| ===Description===
| | #REDIRECT[[Wet-Dry World#Downtown area]] |
| The Underground City (which can also be called the '''Underwater city''' depending on the tide) is a secret area on the game [[Super Mario 64]] and [[Super Mario 64 DS]] and the level in the game, [[Wet Dry World]]. To get there, the player has to launch [[Mario]] into a very tall fence at high tide (it is inaccessible at maximum or any other tide). Once within the cage, you must swim through a tunnel with partially closed gates as fast as you can before Mario loses all of his air reserve (his health). The city has the 8 [[Red Coins]] hidden and the [[Power Star]] required to get all six stars for that level (7 in the DS alteration). To get the star, you have to get the [[Invisible Cap]] (or [[Power Flower]] for Luigi in the [[DS]] remake) and become invisible, then run through the fence. To retrieve all of the red coins you have to look around by jumping on top of the buildings, balancing on thin walls, and breaking [[Brick|Bricks]], all while strategically utilizing the [[Crystal Tap]] and the [[! Switch]] (there are times when you have to use the [[Metal Cap]] or the power flower for [[Wario]] to get to and activate these important items). There are some enemies here as well, but they are fairly easy to avoid. Other [[Item|Items]] include green and blue [[! Block|! Blocks]].

| ===History===
| |
| The city is baron and somewhat small. It is unknown what species of creatures inhabited this place, though many are quite sure they were [[Mermushrooms]]. The latter is not confirmed but the city is quite modernized, so it could be a small pun the '''Lost city of Atlantis'''. This place is currently being patrolled by a small fleet of [[Bowser|Bowser's]] army. These special operation members include [[Skeeter|Skeeters]], [[Heave Ho|Heave Hos]], [[Fire Blaster|Fire Blasters]] ([[Fire Chomp|Fire Chomps]] replace them in the DS version), and [[Amp|Amps]].

| ===Appearance===
| |
| The Underground city is, as latter told, a modernized town having [inaccessable] buildings, wooden [[Sign|signs]], plant life, and even a '''central park''' with [thin] stone walls and a [nonfunctional] fountain. Another attraction is the shrine [without an entrance] that stands in front of the park. It has a cubical opening where you can collect the star after you've gathered all 8 red coins. The closed area with the other power star was possibly something under construction, which could further induce the fact that there was life in the city.
