Gruntopolis

Gruntopolis is the main HUB world of Banjo-Kazooie: Gruntopolis. It is a massive, metropolitan city conjured up by Grunty in order to hinder Banjo and Kazooie on their journey to rescue Mumbo Jumbo and Humba Wumba. There are fifteen level entrances and fourteen moving puzzles located throughout the city, with various buildings and other structures serving as their locations.

Gruntopolis is a massive metropolitan city conjured in the image of none other than Grunty herself; towering above all is Grunty Towers, a massive skyscraper with a modern depiction of her head near the top. Spiral Mountain has been relocated by this powerful spell, and is now jammed into the side of the Main Square, which is simply a large roundabout with a pavilion at the center. To the left of the pavilion is the entrance to the Small Park, where the entrance to Fulgore's Fountain is located. Partway along the roundabout is the beginning of a Large Hill, with a twisting path leading to a gate blocking access to an Old Mansion, serving as the entrance to Ectoplasmic Estate. Heading to the side of the roundabout opposite the Small Park will lead to Main Street, where ten colored houses stand along one side (one to each Jinjo family), as well as the Conservation Lab leading to Tree-Tall Trunk on the other side of the street.
At the end of Main Street is a hill. Downhill leads to The Docks of the city, where a number of colored crates are stacked about and cranes can be found; some of these crates are arranged in such a way as to create a single path through them. Only one pier, the Long Pier, is accessible on this side of The Docks; underneath it is a switch which can be flipped with Underwater Egg Aiming, opening up into a small room. Using Split Up and having both Banjo and Kazooie stand on their respective switches around The Docks will cause a crane to lift up one of the crates and allow passage to the other side, where there is a small boathouse serving as the entrance to Surf-Foam Fracas. There are some open warehouses and a few more piers on this side.
By climbing the hill at the end of Main Street as opposed to traveling down to The Docks, the duo will come across a well-developed area of Gruntopolis known as Uptown. The buildings and streets here are in much better condition, and includes a Photographer's Shop which serves as the entrance into Tidalsand Resort. Alternatively, there is a Cul-De-Sac across the street.
