Sunken City is a secluded town located in northeastern [[Holodrum]], just south of [[Mt. Cucco]] and the northern peaks of Holodrum. As its name suggests, the city is entirely flooded, stranding its citizens, most of which are unable to swim.<ref>{{Cite|The whole city's flooded, but since I can't swim, I'm just here blowing bubbles.| | Sunken City is a secluded town located in northeastern [[Holodrum]], just south of [[Mt. Cucco]] and the northern peaks of Holodrum. As its name suggests, the city is entirely flooded, stranding its citizens, most of which are unable to swim.<ref>{{Cite|The whole city's flooded, but since I can't swim, I'm just here blowing bubbles.|N/A|OoS}}</ref> The city is only seen as such in the entire game. The flooding is said to have been caused by the [[snow]] from Mt. Cucco to the north melting in large quantities due to the erratic changing of the seasons.<ref>{{Cite|With the seasons out of order, the mountain snows melted suddenly, flooding town. I can't even leave the house! It's terrible!|N/A|OoS}}</ref> The snowmelt gushes down into the city in two waterfalls from caverns at the base of Mt. Cucco. To reach the Sunken City, Link must pass by the [[Moblin's Keep]] and through the {{Term|OoS|Sunken City Gate|link}}, although he can [[Warping|warp]] to the city thanks to the [[Mystical Tree|Gale Tree]] located there (actually the first Gale Tree Link encounters in the game). | ||

As thanks for saving him, Dimitri lets Link ride on him. Using Dimitri's abilities, Link can swim up the waterfalls north of the village into the caverns beneath Mt. Cucco.<ref>{{Cite Guide|quote= Once you disperse a group of bullies who are tormenting [Dimitri], he'll let you ride him around the waterways of Sunken City.

The waterfall to the east leads to a cavern where the [[Master Diver]] resides. The other contains a [[Treasure Chest]] which holds the [[Master's Plaque]], which can be traded to the Master Diver for the [[Flippers]].<ref>{{Cite|Ohh!!! That's my Master's Plaque!

With the Flippers, Link can dive into the secret underwater caverns of the city. The one to the south is drops into a cavern of underground waterfalls, called '''Sunken Falls''',<ref>{{Cite|-Sunken Falls- Headwaters in Sunken City| | With the Flippers, Link can dive into the secret underwater caverns of the city.

This cave opens into the [[Woods of Winter]]. Another underwater cave to the northwest of the village is a secret passageway to [[Mt. Cucco]].<ref>{{Cite|I'll teach you my secret route to Mt. Cucco!

To the south of the city is a rise that can only be reached in [[Rod of Seasons#Seasons|winter]] when the [[snow]] creates a slope that allows Link to climb it. Atop this rise is the [[Witch's Hut]], where [[Syrup]] resides. In [[Rod of Seasons#Seasons|summer]], [[vines]] grow on the small cliff in the city. These can be climbed to reach a small cave containing a [[Treasure Chest]] which holds a [[Gasha Seed]]. | To the south of the city is a rise that can only be reached in [[Rod of Seasons#Seasons|winter]] when the [[snow]] creates a slope that allows Link to climb it.

{{Term|OoS|Ingo's House|link}} is located in the northwestern corner of the city. In the {{Term|OoS|Trading Quest|link}}, Link trades him the [[Goron Vase]] for [[Fish]]. | |||
After defeating the [[Great Moblin]] and destroying his keep just west from the city, Link may find a discouraged Great Moblin and his [[Moblin|minion]]s hiding in an abandoned house in the southeast corner of the city while they try to rebuild their lair bomb by bomb.<ref>{{Cite|Bwee...

After what just happened, I've lost all hope.|Great Moblin|OoS}}</ref> Link can destroy the house by igniting the pile of bombs in the house with another [[bomb]] or an [[Ember Seed]]. The Moblins will flee, but will return and rebuild the house (albeit in a much shabbier state), and will begin to make bombs once again. Link can blow up this house a second time, but if he attempts to do so a third time, the Moblins stop him and throw him into the house as it explodes, killing him.<ref>{{Cite|Bwee-hee! So it was you!
