Go down the stairs to get a Piece of Heart.
21. Swamp of Evil - In the northwest corner of the swamp, go into the mouth of the plant-like face. Wait for the two Sparks to go past, then go north and down the stairs to find a block puzzle. See the diagram below for instructions, or follow these directions: Push the bottom-right block to the right to reach the rightmost chest, which contains 20 rupees.

Push the blocks until you can reach the Piece of Heart. You can leave and come back if you need to reset the blocks to their original positions.
23. Dark World's Death Mountain - To get this Piece of Heart, you need to start at Turtle Rock. Go west from the Turtle Rock area, then pick up and throw the large white boulder and go down the stairs. From the entrance, go north to the end of the path. There is an invisible path north of you. You can use the Ether Medallion to reveal the path, but it costs a lot of magic and you might not be able to remember the exact path as you go across. Another method is to use the Cane of Somaria. Use it to create a block north of you, and slowly push it north until it falls off of the edge of the invisible platform. Then create a block east of you, and push it east until it falls off of the edge. Create another block north of you, push it north until it falls. At that point, go west until there is a visible platform north of you, and walk north onto it. Use a bomb at the cracked wall and go through. In this plus-shaped room, bomb the west wall and go through. Then go south to go outside. Use the Magic Mirror to go to the Light World, then take the Piece of Heart that you find there.
24. Outside of Turtle Rock - There is a Piece of Heart that you can only get from the outside ledge that you reach during the Turtle Rock dungeon. It is a long ledge on the side of the mountain that has two cave entrances. Go to the easternmost edge of the ledge and use the Magic Mirror. In the Light World, enter the cave. There are four Goriyas (or Eyegores in the GBA version). Go to the barrier on the right side of the room and hold the A button to hold onto it, then use the directional pad to make the Goriyas come to you. Then use the Hammer on the Moles and kill the Goriyas at the top of the room. The door will open. Go through and open the chest to get a Piece of Heart.
