The '''Kongo Jungle''' is a vast jungle found on [[Donkey Kong Island]], at the foot of [[Monkey Mines]]. First appearing in ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'', Kongo Jungle is the place where [[DK's Tree House]] and the [[Banana Hoard]] is found; a distinction shared with the similar [[Jungle (Donkey Kong Country Returns)|Jungle]] world in ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'', which has been suggested to be the same location.<ref>KynanPearson (August 12, 2021).

In ''Donkey Kong Country'', Kongo Jungle is the first world. Most of the area is engulfed in a jungle, but there is a long cavern about midway through. The cavern's exit leads to the second half of Kongo Jungle, which itself directly leads to a large lake. The original [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System]] release shows two halves of Kongo Jungle in separate screens. The levels are as follows: | |||

Kongo Jungle (spelled "Congo Jungle" in the original ''Super Smash Bros.'') appears as one of the arenas in ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' The Kongo Jungle stage is made out of a large wooden platform with several smaller, sometimes floating ones around it. There is also a vast jungle in the background of the arena and a [[Barrel Cannon]] underneath the arena. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', in addition to the previous Kongo Jungle returning, another Kongo Jungle stage (later renamed "Kongo Falls" in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'') was introduced. This Kongo Jungle stage is constructed out of logs strewn together, which are sitting on rocks jutting out of a waterfall. In the background of this stage is a vast jungle along with what appears to be [[DK's Tree House]]. Kongo Jungle in ''Super Smash Bros.'' later returns in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'', while both versions reappear in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''. | Kongo Jungle (spelled "Congo Jungle" in the original ''Super Smash Bros.'') appears as one of the arenas in ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' The Kongo Jungle stage is made out of a large wooden platform with several smaller, sometimes floating ones around it.
