During the {{Term|Series|Era of Chaos|link}}, a group of powerful sorcerers known as the {{Plural|Series|Dark Interlopers|link}} waged a {{Term|Series|Battle for the Sacred Realm|link}} against the people of {{Term|Series|Hyrule|link}} to seize the {{Term|Series|Triforce|link}}.<ref name="E 24">{{Cite Book|quote= |book= E |publisher= |page= 24}}</ref><ref name="E 30">{{Cite Book|quote= |book= E |publisher= |page= 30}}</ref> To prevent the abuse of the {{Term|Series|Triforce}}, the {{Plural|Series|Golden Goddess|link}} sent the {{Plural|Series|Light Spirit|link}} to banish the {{Plural|Series|Dark Interlopers}} into the {{Term|Series|Twilight Realm|link}},<ref name="E 30"/> a sort of parallel world that exists "behind" the {{Term|Series|Light World|link}}.<ref>{{Cite Book|quote= |book= E |publisher= |page= 28}}</ref> The {{Term|Series|Sage of Light}}, {{Term|Series|Rauru|link}}, also decided to hide the {{Term|Series|Triforce}} within the {{Term|Series|Sacred Realm}}'s {{Term|Series|Temple of Light|link}}. As the only entrance to the {{Term|Series|Temple of Light}} was through the ruins of the {{Term|Series|Sealed Temple|link}}, {{Term|Series|Rauru}} built a new {{Term|Series|Temple of Time|display=Temple}} over the ruins to protect the entrance.<ref>{{Cite Book|quote= |book= E |publisher= |page= 26}}</ref>
[[File:OoT3D Temple of Time Interior.png|thumb|center|The {{Term|OoT3D|Temple of Time}}'s interior from {{OoT3D|-}}]]
Inspired by the legends of a hero who wielded the {{Term|Series|Master Sword|link}} and traveled through {{Term|Series|Time|link}} in the distant {{Term|Series|Sky Era|link}},<ref name="E 25">{{Cite Book|quote= |book= E |publisher= |page= 25}}</ref> he chose to borrow the name of the fabled {{Term|Series|Temple of Time}} and used the {{Term|Series|Master Sword}} to seal the entrance to the {{Term|Series|Sacred Realm}} as it could not be touched by evil hands and could only be drawn from the {{Term|Series|Pedestal of the Master Sword|link}} by those deemed worthy.<ref name="E 25"/> The {{Term|Series|Master Sword}} was then sealed behind the {{Term|Series|Door of Time|link}}, which could only be opened with the three {{Plural|Series|Spiritual Stone|link}} and the {{Term|Series|Ocarina of Time (Item)|link}}.<ref name="HH 77">{{Cite Book|quote= |book= HH |publisher= |page= 77}}</ref> The {{Term|Series|Kingdom of Hyrule|link}} was established by the descendants of the reborn {{Term|Series|Hylia|link|display=Goddess Hylia}} to protect the secret of the {{Term|Series|Triforce}}'s whereabouts, and {{Term|Series|Hyrule Castle|link}} was built close to the {{Term|Series|Temple of Time}} in order to keep watch over it.<ref name="HH 77"/>
 
Centuries later during the {{Term|OoT3D|Era of the Hero of Time|link}}, the {{Term|Series|Gerudo|link}} King {{Term|OoT3D|Ganondorf|link}} learned of the existence of the {{Term|OoT3D|Sacred Realm}} and pretended to serve the {{Term|OoT3D|Royal Family of Hyrule|link}} in order to discover its entrance.<ref>{{Cite Book|quote= |book= HH |publisher= |page= 84}}</ref> {{Term|OoT3D|Princess Zelda|link}} began to have ominous dreams warning her of {{Term|OoT3D|Ganondorf}}'s impending betrayal yet also promising a hero would appear in the form of a boy from the {{Term|OoT3D|Kokiri Forest|link}}.<ref>{{Cite|I had a dream... In the dream, dark storm clouds were billowing over the land of Hyrule... But suddenly, a ray of light shot out of the forest, parted the clouds, and lit up the ground...

Excellent work! As I thought, you held the keys to the Door of Time! You have led me to the gates of the Sacred Realm... Yes, I owe it all to you, kid!|Ganondorf|OoT3D}}</ref>
 
After {{Term|OoT3D|Link}} successfully recovers the remaining two {{Plural|OoT3D|Spiritual Stone}}, {{Term|OoT3D|Ganondorf}} attacks and seizes {{Term|OoT3D|Hyrule Castle}}, forcing {{Term|OoT3D|Princess Zelda}} to flee with the {{Term|OoT3D|Ocarina of Time (Item)}}.<ref name="HH 86">{{Cite Book|quote= |book= HH |publisher= |page= 86}}</ref> {{Term|OoT3D|Link}} and {{Term|OoT3D|Princess Zelda}} encounter each other once more as she is fleeing {{Term|OoT3D|Hyrule Castle Town|link}}, where she throws the {{Term|OoT3D|Ocarina of Time (Item)|display=Ocarina}} to him in desperation.<ref name="HH 86"/> Taking the three {{Plural|OoT3D|Spiritual Stone}} and the {{Term|OoT3D|Ocarina of Time (Item)}} to the {{Term|OoT3D|Temple of Time}}, {{Term|OoT3D|Link}} opens the {{Term|OoT3D|Door of Time}} and draws the {{Term|OoT3D|Master Sword}} from its {{Term|OoT3D|Pedestal of Time|display=Pedestal}}.<ref name="HH 86"/> However, because {{Term|OoT3D|Link}} has the body of a child, he is not strong enough to wield the {{Term|OoT3D|Master Sword|display=Sword}}, and so the {{Term|OoT3D|Master Sword}} casts {{Term|OoT3D|Link}} into a deep sleep to allow his body to grow.<ref name="HH 87">{{Cite Book|quote= |book= HH |publisher= |page= 87}}</ref>
 
{{Term|OoT3D|Ganondorf}} recognizes this as his opportunity to enter the {{Term|OoT3D|Sacred Realm}} unopposed and follows {{Term|OoT3D|Link}} inside.<ref name="HH 87"/> With {{Term|OoT3D|Link}} unable to stop him, {{Term|OoT3D|Ganondorf}} lays his hands on the {{Term|OoT3D|Triforce}}.<ref name="HH 86"/> However, this unintentionally causes it to split apart because {{Term|OoT3D|Ganondorf}}'s heart was wicked and imbalanced.<ref>{{Cite Book|quote= |book= E |publisher= |page= 20}}</ref> The {{Term|OoT3D|Triforce of Wisdom|link}} and {{Term|OoT3D|Triforce of Courage|link}} chose {{Term|OoT3D|Princess Zelda}} and {{Term|OoT3D|Link}} respectively as their rightful hosts, while only {{Term|OoT3D|Triforce of Power|link}} was left for {{Term|OoT3D|Ganondorf}} to claim.<ref name="HH 86"/>
[[File:OoT3D Temple of Time 2.png|thumb|right|The {{Term|OoT3D|Temple of Time}} in the {{Term|OoT3D|Adult Era}} from {{OoT3D|-}}]]
After {{Term|OoT3D|Link}} reawakens seven years later, {{Term|OoT3D|Ganondorf}} begins to watch him in the hopes that the fugitive {{Term|OoT3D|Princess Zelda}} will reveal herself. {{Term|OoT3D|Princess Zelda}} disguises herself as a young {{Term|OoT3D|Sheikah|link}} man named {{Term|OoT3D|Sheik|link}}, who meets with {{Term|OoT3D|Link}} inside the {{Term|OoT3D|Temple of Time}} to help guide him to the various {{Plural|OoT3D|Temple}} across {{Term|OoT3D|Hyrule}}.<ref name="HH 87"/><ref>{{Cite Book|quote= |book= HH |publisher= |page= 88}}</ref> {{Term|OoT3D|Sheik}} also teaches {{Term|OoT3D|Link}} the "{{Term|OoT3D|Prelude of Light|link}}" in the {{Term|OoT3D|Temple of Time}} after he frees the {{Term|OoT3D|Sage of Forest|link}} from the {{Term|OoT3D|Forest Temple|link}}.
 
Eventually, {{Term|OoT3D|Link}} awakens the remaining members of the {{Term|OoT3D|Seven Sages|link}} and returns to the {{Term|OoT3D|Temple of Time}} where {{Term|OoT3D|Sheik}} reveals his identity as the itinerant {{Term|OoT3D|Princess Zelda}}, the leader of the {{Term|OoT3D|Seven Sages|link}}.<ref name="HH 89">{{Cite Book|quote= |book= HH |publisher= |page= 89}}</ref> She does this to draw {{Term|OoT3D|Ganondorf}} into the {{Term|OoT3D|Sacred Realm}} where the three wielders of the {{Term|OoT3D|Triforce}} would do battle.<ref name="HH 89"/> To help {{Term|OoT3D|Link}} in his destined fight against {{Term|OoT3D|Ganondorf}}, she gives him the {{Plural|OoT3D|Light Arrow|link}}. However, {{Term|OoT3D|Ganondorf}} quickly learns of her presence and traps her within a magic crystal, stealing her away to his {{Term|OoT3D|Ganon's Castle|link|display=Castle}} and beckoning {{Term|OoT3D|Link}} to face him.<ref>{{Cite Book|quote= |book= HH |publisher= |page= 90}}</ref>
 
Depending on the outcome of the fated battle, different things happen within the {{Term|OoT3D|Temple of Time}}. If {{Term|OoT3D|Link}} falls in battle to {{Term|OoT3D|Ganondorf}}, the {{Term|OoT3D|Gerudo}} King steals the {{Term|OoT3D|Triforce of Courage}} and {{Term|OoT3D|Triforce of Wisdom|display=Wisdom}}, transforming into the {{Term|OoT3D|Ganon|display=Demon King}} {{Term|OoT3D|Ganon|link}} and forcing the {{Term|OoT3D|Seven Sages}} to seal him within the {{Term|OoT3D|Sacred Realm}}.<ref>{{Cite Book|quote= |book= HH |publisher= |page= 92}}</ref> An {{Term|OoT3D|Imprisoning War|link}} eventually breaks out over entrance to the {{Term|OoT3D|Sacred Realm}} as people find their way into the {{Term|OoT3D|Sacred Realm}} only to be transformed into {{Plural|OoT3D|Monster|link}} by the {{Term|OoT3D|Darkness|link}} inside.<ref name="HH 93">{{Cite Book|quote= |book= HH |publisher= |page= 93}}</ref> The {{Term|OoT3D|King of Hyrule|link}} orders for the {{Term|OoT3D|Sacred Realm}} to be sealed once more, only for an army of {{Plural|OoT3D|Monster}} under the command of {{Term|OoT3D|Ganon}} to spring from the {{Term|OoT3D|Sacred Realm|display=Realm}} and wage war against {{Term|OoT3D|Hyrule}}.<ref name="HH 93"/> At the great cost of many lives, the {{Term|OoT3D|Seven Sages}} seal the {{Term|OoT3D|Sacred Realm}}.<ref name="HH 93"/> This order of events eventually leads to the decline of {{Term|OoT3D|Hyrule}} and the events of {{ALttP}}.<ref name="HH 93"/>
 
In another reality in the {{Term|OoT3D|Adult Era|link}}, {{Term|OoT3D|Link}} succeeds against {{Term|OoT3D|Ganondorf}} and the {{Term|OoT3D|Seven Sages}} seal him away in a void within the {{Term|OoT3D|Sacred Realm}}.<ref>{{Cite Book|quote= |book= HH |publisher= |page= 91}}</ref> {{Term|OoT3D|Princess Zelda}} then uses the {{Term|OoT3D|Ocarina of Time (Item)}} to return {{Term|OoT3D|Link}} to his own time and places the {{Term|OoT3D|Master Sword}} back into its {{Term|OoT3D|Pedestal of Time|display=Pedestal}}, sealing the {{Term|OoT3D|Door of Time}} once more.<ref>{{Cite Book|quote= |book= E |publisher= |page= 122}}</ref> This order of events leads to the {{Term|Series|Era without a Hero|link}} and the events of {{TWW}}.
 
Having returned to his own time in the {{Term|OoT3D|Child Era|link}}, {{Term|OoT3D|Link}} awakens in the {{Term|OoT3D|Temple of Time}} to a time before the {{Term|OoT3D|Master Sword}} is drawn from its {{Term|OoT3D|Pedestal of Time|display=Pedestal}}.<ref name="HH 110">{{Cite Book|quote= |book= HH |publisher= |page= 110}}</ref> {{Term|OoT3D|Link}} meets with {{Term|OoT3D|Princess Zelda}} in this new {{Term|OoT3D|Timeline|link}} to warn her of {{Term|OoT3D|Ganondorf}}'s plan.<ref name="HH 110"/> Fearing this possible future, {{Term|OoT3D|Princess Zelda}} sends {{Term|OoT3D|Link}} away with the {{Term|OoT3D|Ocarina of Time (Item)}} so that the {{Term|OoT3D|Door of Time}} can never be opened.<ref name="HH 110"/> This order of events leads to the events of {{MM}} and eventually the {{Term|OoT3D|Twilight Era|link}} after the {{Term|OoT3D|Failed Execution of Ganondorf|link}}.
 
The {{Term|OoT3D|Temple of Time}} was constructed much like a cathedral. Inside, there is a {{Term|OoT3D|Triforce Warp|link}} with the symbol representing {{Term|OoT3D|Light|link}}. {{Term|OoT3D|Link}} can {{Term|OoT3D|Warping|link|display=Warp}} to this by playing the "{{Term|OoT3D|Prelude of Light}}" on the {{Term|OoT3D|Ocarina of Time (Item)}}. In {{OoT3D}}, a {{Term|OoT3D|Sheikah Stone|link}} meant to guide {{Term|OoT3D|Link}} with {{Plural|OoT3D|Vision|link}} can be found inside the {{Term|OoT3D|Temple of Time}}. Outside the {{Term|OoT3D|Temple of Time|display=Temple}}, {{Term|OoT3D|Link}} can find four {{Plural|OoT3D|Gossip Stone|link}}. If the game is saved while {{Term|OoT3D|Link}} is outside of a {{Term|OoT3D|Dungeon|link}} in the {{Term|OoT3D|Adult Era}}, he will appear inside the {{Term|OoT3D|Temple of Time}} when the game is reloaded.

The {{Term|TPHD|Temple of Time}} from the {{Term|TPHD|Child Era|link}} is eventually abandoned and rots away with time.<ref>{{Cite Book|quote= |book= HH |publisher= |page= 117}}</ref> The grounds where the {{Term|TPHD|Temple of Time}} stood are eventually claimed by nature and become the {{Term|TPHD|Sacred Grove|link}}. However, the {{Term|TPHD|Master Sword|link}} remains in its {{Term|TPHD|Pedestal of the Master Sword|link|display=Pedestal}}, waiting for a hero to claim it. Signs of the civilization from the {{Term|TPHD|Era of the Hero of Time|link}} remain and inspire adventurers like {{Term|TPHD|Rusl|link}} to seek them out.<ref>{{Cite|The ancestors of the Hylians created the {{Color|TPHD Red|temple}}...

After {{Term|TPHD|Zant|link}} places a curse on {{Term|TPHD|Link|link}} by trapping him in his {{Term|TPHD|Wolf Link|link|display=Wolf}} form with the {{Term|TPHD|Shadow Crystal|link}}, {{Term|TPHD|Princess Zelda|link}} reveals the location of the {{Term|TPHD|Master Sword}} which can purge the evil curse. {{Term|TPHD|Link}} travels to the {{Term|TPHD|Sacred Grove|link}} with {{Term|TPHD|Midna|link}} on his back to find the {{Term|TPHD|Master Sword|display=Sword}}. Upon locating the {{Term|TPHD|Master Sword}}, {{Term|TPHD|Link}} touches it and is cleansed of his curse, transforming back into a {{Term|TPHD|Human|link}} with the {{Term|TPHD|Master Sword}} in hand.
 
{{Term|TPHD|Link}} eventually returns to the {{Term|TPHD|Sacred Grove}} in search of the {{Term|TPHD|Mirror Shard|link}} stolen by {{Term|TPHD|Zant}}. The {{Term|TPHD|Mirror Shard}} is located within the {{Term|TPHD|Temple of Time}} in the distant past and in order to find it, {{Term|TPHD|Link}} must plunge the {{Term|TPHD|Master Sword}} back into its {{Term|TPHD|Pedestal of the Master Sword|display=Pedestal}} to remove a statue blocking the {{Term|TPHD|Door of Time|link}}. Upon doing so and passing through the {{Term|TPHD|Door of Time}}, he is transported to a time in which the {{Term|TPHD|Temple of Time}} stands at its most glorious splendor. By inserting the {{Term|TPHD|Master Sword}} back into its {{Term|TPHD|Pedestal of the Master Sword|display=Pedestal}}, {{Term|TPHD|Link}} is able to enter the {{Term|TPHD|Temple of Time (Dungeon)|link}} proper.

The {{Term|SSHD|Temple of Time}} is a large, open-roofed {{Term|SSHD|Temple|link}} at the {{Term|SSHD|Desert Gorge|link}} in the {{Term|SSHD|Lanayru Desert|link}}.

A gigantic stone carving of the {{Term|SSHD|Hylian Crest|link}} with a {{Term|SSHD|Triforce|link}} above it sits at the back of the {{Term|SSHD|Temple of Time}}.

After purifying herself in the {{Term|SSHD|Skyview Spring|link}} and {{Term|SSHD|Earth Spring|link}}, {{Term|SSHD|Zelda|link}} is taken to the {{Term|SSHD|Temple of Time}} to keep her safe and out of {{Term|SSHD|Ghirahim|link}}'s reach.

However, {{Term|SSHD|Link}} arrives at this moment and offers his aid, allowing {{Term|SSHD|Impa}} and the {{Term|SSHD|Reborn Goddess Hylia|link}} a chance to escape to the distant past. Before they leave, {{Term|SSHD|Zelda}} gives {{Term|SSHD|Link}} the {{Term|SSHD|Goddess's Harp|link}},<ref>{{Cite|Link, here!

The Temple of Time is the sanctified gateway between [[Hyrule]] and the [[Sacred Realm]].<ref>{{Cite|The Temple of Time is the entrance through which you can enter the Sacred Realm from our world.|Princess Zelda|Ocarina of Time}}</ref>

When the [[Master Sword]] was infused into the [[Pedestal of Time]], it sealed that gateway in the hopes of preventing all but the most worthy to reach the Sacred Realm, where the ancient [[Triforce]] lies.

It is said that only the Hero of Time may enter the secret chambers of the temple and draw the Master Sword.<ref>{{Cite|The Master Sword is a sacred blade which evil ones may never touch.... Only one worthy of the title of "Hero of Time" can pull it from the Pedestal of Time....|Rauru|Ocarina of Time}}</ref>

The Temple of Time is one of Hyrule's most ancient edifices, and the ancient [[Sage]]s aided in its construction long ago.<ref>{{Cite|So, the ancient Sages built the Temple of Time to protect the Triforce from evil ones.|Princess Zelda|Ocarina of Time}}</ref>
The {{Term|BotW|Temple of Time}} is a large complex near the center of the {{Term|BotW|Great Plateau|link}}. It resembles its form from the {{Term|BotW|Era of the Hero of Time|link}}, with several alterations. The grounds leading up to the {{Term|BotW|Temple of Time}} proper host three abbeys placed in a triangular formation, each marked with crests dedicated to one of the {{Plural|BotW|Golden Goddess|link}}. According to the {{Term|BotW|Old Man|link}}, the {{Term|BotW|Temple of Time}} was where many sacred ceremonies were held, but it was abandoned after the destruction of {{Term|BotW|Hyrule Kingdom|link}} during the second {{Term|BotW|Great Calamity|link}}.<ref>{{Cite|That temple there... Long ago, it was the site of many sacred ceremonies.

At the back of the {{Term|BotW|Temple of Time}} there is a large {{Term|BotW|Goddess Statue|link}} surrounded by six smaller {{Plural|BotW|Goddess Statue}}. {{Term|BotW|Link}} can pray at this {{Term|BotW|Goddess Statue}} and exchange four {{Plural|BotW|Spirit Orb|link}} for either a {{Term|BotW|Heart Container|link}} or a {{Term|BotW|Stamina Vessel|link}}. To either side of the {{Term|BotW|Goddess Statue}} are two {{Plural|BotW|Tombstone|link}} belonging to unknown decedents. On the rear side of the {{Term|BotW|Temple of Time}} there is a symbol of the {{Term|BotW|Triforce|link}} bearing the {{Term|BotW|Crest of Din|link|display=Crests of Din}}, {{Term|BotW|Crest of Nayru|link|display=Nayru}}, and {{Term|BotW|Crest of Farore|link|display=Farore}}.

Within the temple stands a sacred altar which bears inscribed instructions to opening the Door of Time, which leads to the Master Sword.

According to Rauru, the Door of Time is, effectively, an obstacle to the Sacred Realm put in place when the Triforce was sealed away. At the start of ''Ocarina of Time'', [[Ganon|Ganondorf]] is attempting to remove this obstacle but is frustrated by the guardians of the Spiritual Stones.

The Door of Time possibly made another appearance in ''Twilight Princess''.  At the entrance to the ruined temple, there is a single set of stone doors.  When translated from ancient Hylian, the inscription upon them reads "Time Door."  The mystical portal contained within these doors became the means through which the Link of ''Twilight Princess'' was able to travel back in time to visit the Temple of Time fully intact, as it stood in the days of his forbearer.

However, there is room for doubt that the doors portrayed in ''Twilight Princess'' are not in fact the same as the actual "Door of Time" of ''Ocarina of Time''.  One thing to take into consideration is the fact that the "Time Door" of ''Twilight Princess'' is located on the outer wall of the Temple of Time, the same place where one would enter the temple in ''Ocarina of Time'' but '''not''' where the chamber containing the Master Sword was entered - that more corresponds to the doorway that the Guardians of the [[Sacred Grove]] protect in ''Twilight Princess''.

After collecting the three Spiritual Stones and finding the Ocarina of Time, [[Link]] had to travel to the Temple of Time to acquire the Master Sword and enter the Sacred Realm.  However, his spirit was unexpectedly sealed away for seven years by the Master Sword, for Link was not yet old enough to become the Hero of Time.  When he finally awakened, [[Rauru]] the sage explained Hyrule's dire situation to Link, gave him the [[Light Medallion]], and charged him with awakening the other sages.


There are only two rooms of the Temple of Time accessible by Link in ''Ocarina of Time''. However, the temple still receives recognition as the "Light Room" in [[Ganon's Castle]].

A notable glitch of ''Ocarina of Time'' is that upon heading through the passageway towards the Pedestal of Time, the walls ahead can be seen to change shape drastically. This glitch is supposedly caused by a compression technique used in the game.

It is unknown whether the Temple of Time was moved to a location near the [[Forest Temple]], or if [[Hyrule Castle]] was rebuilt north of where it originally stood, and Faron Woods grew up around the old [[Hyrule Castle Town|Castle Town]]. This is logical, as Ganon's Tower, which took the place of Hyrule Castle during Adult Link's quest, was destroyed at the end of Ocarina of Time. Another reason to support this is in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]'' when [[Wolf Link]] is traversing on top of Hyrule Castle there appears to be scaffolding as if Hyrule Castle was nearing completion of being built or possibly re-built.

It is also a possible that, since Link has to pass through the [[Sacred Grove]] in order to access the Temple (which may have similar warping abilities as the [[Lost Woods]]), Link has simply been unknowingly warped to a similarly forested area where the Temple of Time is located.

Not to be confused with the Temple of Time Ruins.

The Temple of Time is a recurring location in The Legend of Zelda series.[1][2][3][4][5]

Features and Overview

Ocarina of Time

During the Era of Chaos, a group of powerful sorcerers known as the Dark Interlopers waged a Battle for the Sacred Realm against the people of Kingdom of Hyrule to seize the Triforce.[6][7] To prevent the abuse of the Triforce, the Golden Goddesses sent the Spirits of Light to banish the Dark Interlopers into the Twilight Realm,[7] a sort of parallel world that exists "behind" the Light World.[8] The Sage of Light, Rauru, also decided to hide the Triforce within the Sacred Realm's Temple of Light. As the only entrance to the Temple of Light was through the ruins of the Sealed Temple, Rauru built a new Temple over the ruins to protect the entrance.[9]

The Temple of Time's interior from Ocarina of Time 3D

Inspired by the legends of a hero who wielded the Master Sword and traveled through Time in the distant Sky Era,[10] he chose to borrow the name of the fabled Temple of Time and used the Master Sword to seal the entrance to the Sacred Realm as it could not be touched by evil hands and could only be drawn from the Pedestal of the Master Sword by those deemed worthy.[10] The Master Sword was then sealed behind the Door of Time, which could only be opened with the three Spiritual Stones and the Ocarina of Time.[11] The Kingdom of Hyrule was established by the descendants of the reborn Goddess Hylia to protect the secret of the Triforce's whereabouts, and Hyrule Castle was built close to the Temple of Time in order to keep watch over it.[11]

Centuries later during the Era of the Hero of Time, the Gerudo King Ganondorf learned of the existence of the Sacred Realm and pretended to serve the Royal Family of Hyrule in order to discover its entrance.[12] Princess Zelda began to have ominous dreams warning her of Ganondorf's impending betrayal yet also promising a hero would appear in the form of a boy from the Kokiri Forest.[13][14] When Link appears to her with the Spiritual Stone of the Forest, she recognizes him as the hero from her dreams and tasks him with the responsibility of collecting the Spiritual Stones to keep them out of Ganondorf's hands.[14] However, Ganondorf notices their plan and begins to watch Link.[15]

After Link successfully recovers the remaining two Spiritual Stones, Ganondorf attacks and seizes Hyrule Castle, forcing Princess Zelda to flee with the Ocarina of Time.[16] Link and Princess Zelda encounter each other once more as she is fleeing Hyrule Castle Town, where she throws the Ocarina to him in desperation.[16] Taking the three Spiritual Stones and the Ocarina of Time to the Temple of Time, Link opens the Door of Time and draws the Master Sword from its Pedestal.[16] However, because Link has the body of a child, he is not strong enough to wield the Sword, and so the Master Sword casts Link into a deep sleep to allow his body to grow.[17]

Ganondorf recognizes this as his opportunity to enter the Sacred Realm unopposed and follows Link inside.[17] With Link unable to stop him, Ganondorf lays his hands on the Triforce.[16] However, this unintentionally causes it to split apart because Ganondorf's heart was wicked and imbalanced.[18] The Triforce of Wisdom and Triforce of Courage chose Princess Zelda and Link respectively as their rightful hosts, while only Triforce of Power was left for Ganondorf to claim.[16]

The Temple of Time in the Adult Era from Ocarina of Time 3D

After Link reawakens seven years later, Ganondorf begins to watch him in the hopes that the fugitive Princess Zelda will reveal herself. Princess Zelda disguises herself as a young Sheikah man named Sheik, who meets with Link inside the Temple of Time to help guide him to the various Temples across Hyrule.[17][19] Sheik also teaches Link the "Prelude of Light" in the Temple of Time after he frees the Sage of the Forest from the Forest Temple.

Eventually, Link awakens the remaining members of the Seven Sages and returns to the Temple of Time where Sheik reveals his identity as the itinerant Princess Zelda, the leader of the Seven Sages.[20] She does this to draw Ganondorf into the Sacred Realm where the three wielders of the Triforce would do battle.[20] To help Link in his destined fight against Ganondorf, she gives him the Light Arrows. However, Ganondorf quickly learns of her presence and traps her within a magic crystal, stealing her away to his Castle and beckoning Link to face him.[21]

Depending on the outcome of the fated battle, different things happen within the Temple of Time. If Link falls in battle to Ganondorf, the Gerudo King steals the Triforce of Courage and Wisdom, transforming into the Demon King Ganon and forcing the Seven Sages to seal him within the Sacred Realm.[22] An Imprisoning War eventually breaks out over entrance to the Sacred Realm as people find their way into the Sacred Realm only to be transformed into Monsters by the Darkness inside.[23] The King of Hyrule orders for the Sacred Realm to be sealed once more, only for an army of Monsters under the command of Ganon to spring from the Realm and wage war against Hyrule.[23] At the great cost of many lives, the Seven Sages seal the Sacred Realm.[23] This order of events eventually leads to the decline of Hyrule and the events of A Link to the Past.[23]

In another reality in the Adult Era, Link succeeds against Ganondorf and the Seven Sages seal him away in a void within the Sacred Realm.[24] Princess Zelda then uses the Ocarina of Time to return Link to his own time and places the Master Sword back into its Pedestal, sealing the Door of Time once more.[25] This order of events leads to the Era without a Hero and the events of The Wind Waker.

Having returned to his own time in the Child Era, Link awakens in the Temple of Time to a time before the Master Sword is drawn from its Pedestal.[26] Link meets with Princess Zelda in this new Timeline to warn her of Ganondorf's plan.[26] Fearing this possible future, Princess Zelda sends Link away with the Ocarina of Time so that the Door of Time can never be opened.[26] This order of events leads to the events of Majora's Mask and eventually the Twilight Era after the Failed Execution of Ganondorf.

The Temple of Time was constructed much like a cathedral. Inside, there is a Triforce Warp with the symbol representing Light. Link can Warp to this by playing the "Prelude of Light" on the Ocarina of Time. In Ocarina of Time 3D, a Sheikah Stone meant to guide Link with Visions can be found inside the Temple of Time. Outside the Temple, Link can find four Gossip Stones. If the game is saved while Link is outside of a Dungeon in the Adult Era, he will appear inside the Temple of Time when the game is reloaded.

The Temple of Time at its height of glory

The Temple of Time from the Child Era is eventually abandoned and rots away with time.[27] The grounds where the Temple of Time stood are eventually claimed by nature and become the Sacred Grove. However, the Master Sword remains in its Pedestal, waiting for a hero to claim it. Signs of the civilization from the Era of the Hero of Time remain and inspire adventurers like Rusl to seek them out.[28]

After Zant places a curse on Link by trapping him in his Wolf form with the Shadow Crystal, Princess Zelda reveals the location of the Master Sword which can purge the evil curse. Link travels to the Sacred Grove with Midna on his back to find the Sword. Upon locating the Master Sword, Link touches it and is cleansed of his curse, transforming back into a Human with the Master Sword in hand.

Link eventually returns to the Sacred Grove in search of the Mirror Shard stolen by Zant. The Mirror Shard is located within the Temple of Time in the distant past and in order to find it, Link must plunge the Master Sword back into its Pedestal to remove a statue blocking the Door of Time. Upon doing so and passing through the Door of Time, he is transported to a time in which the Temple of Time stands at its most glorious splendor. By inserting the Master Sword back into its Pedestal, Link is able to enter the Temple of Time proper.

Skyward Sword

The Temple of Time is a large, open-roofed Temple at the Desert Gorge in the Lanayru Desert. It is connected to the Lanayru Mining Facility where Timeshift Stones were processed for the Goddess Hylia. A gigantic stone carving of the Hylian Crest with a Triforce above it sits at the back of the Temple of Time. A device intended for traveling between time periods known as a Gate of Time can be found in front of this Crest, flanked by Loftwing statues.

After purifying herself in the Skyview Spring and Earth Spring, Zelda is taken to the Temple of Time to keep her safe and out of Ghirahim's reach. At some point after her arrival, the entrance to the Temple was destroyed in an explosion,[29] making the Lanayru Mining Facility the only means of accessing the Temple by foot.[30] Before Impa and Zelda can make their escape by passing through the Gate of Time, Ghirahim breaks through the rubble and attacks Impa's barrier. However, Link arrives at this moment and offers his aid, allowing Impa and the Reborn Goddess Hylia a chance to escape to the distant past. Before they leave, Zelda gives Link the Goddess's Harp,[31] a necessary tool to activate the second Gate of Time in the Sealed Temple in the Faron Province.[32] As they escape, Impa leaves behind a magical Bomb to destroy the Gate of Time behind them, preventing Ghirahim from following them. Frustrated by this loss, Ghirahim prepares his retreat, threatening to torture Link the next time they meet.[33]

Two Blue Rupees can be found atop the pillars surrounding the Gate of Time.

Breath of the Wild

The Temple of Time is a large complex near the center of the Great Plateau. It resembles its form from the Era of the Hero of Time, with several alterations. The grounds leading up to the Temple of Time proper host three abbeys placed in a triangular formation, each marked with crests dedicated to one of the Golden Goddesses. According to the Old Man, the Temple of Time was where many sacred ceremonies were held, but it was abandoned after the destruction of Hyrule Kingdom during the second Great Calamity.[34] In the past, it was connected to the Great Plateau's Eastern Abbey by a road on its eastern side, though this road has been destroyed. At the back of the Temple of Time there is a large Goddess Statue surrounded by six smaller Goddess Statues. Link can pray at this Goddess Statue and exchange four Spirit Orbs for either a Heart Container or a Stamina Vessel. To either side of the Goddess Statue are two Tombstones belonging to unknown decedents. On the rear side of the Temple of Time there is a symbol of the Triforce bearing the Crests of Din, Nayru, and Farore.

King Rhoam revealing himself to Link at the Temple of Time

When Link successfully retrieves four Spirit Orbs from the four Ancient Shrines atop the Great Plateau, he is visited by the Old Man.[35] The Old Man tells Link to draw imaginary lines between the Ancient Shrines and to meet him where those lines cross.[36] This instruction guides Link to the tower of the Temple of Time's main building, where the Old Man reveals his true identity as the late King of Hyrule, Rhoam Bosphoramus Hyrule.[37][38] There, King Rhoam tells Link about the events of the Great Calamity and the destruction of Hyrule Kingdom by Calamity Ganon's hands in spite of their preparations to subvert the prophecy of ruin.[39] He instructs Link to meet with Impa of Kakariko Village to the west in order to gain the power necessary to destroy Ganon.[40] Before fading away, King Rhoam gifts Link the Paraglider, a tool that allows him to safely descend off of the Great Plateau.[41]

A Fallen Guardian can be found in a small pool between the lowest buildings. It can be searched for Ancient Materials. Additionally, Link can use the Cryonis Rune to lift it from the pool and make Ancient Materials drop from its bottom. Another searchable Fallen Guardian can be found in the third building with the Crest of Din. Four more Fallen Guardians can be found around the base of the main building of the Temple.
