==Trivia==
*Inside Jabu-Jabu's Belly may have been inspired by the dungeon [[Catfish's Maw]] from {{LA}}. Both lie in an enclosed body of water and involve entering the mouth of a giant fish (though the catfish is not actually real).
*Inside Jabu-Jabu's Belly is the first dungeon in {{OoT}} to have a unique dungeon theme, as the themes pertaining to the [[Inside the Deku Tree|Deku Tree]] and [[Dodongo's Cavern]] are both used elsewhere, like in [[Cave|grottos]] and the [[Royal Tomb]] respectively.
*[[Link]] cannot get the [[Spiritual Stones#Zora's Sapphire|Zora's Sapphire]] on his own from the room where he fights the [[Big Octo]]. He must throw [[Princess Ruto|Ruto]] into the platform to get it.
*In the first room after fighting the [[Big Octo]], there is a ramp to the right. If the player changes the camera angle so that it goes through the wall for a few seconds, a [[Hookshot]] target can be seen.{{fact}}
*This is the only dungeon in the game where Link is accompanied by another character (Princess Ruto) when he is warping to the dungeon's exit after defeating a boss.
*A remixed version of the dungeon's theme was used in {{TWW}} as [[Jabun]]'s theme.
*In {{OOT3D}}, the dungeon can be accessed as an adult using a glitch. Link must approach the ice slope that replaces Jabu-Jabu and walk along its left edge. If done correctly, Link will walk inside the dungeon.

==Trivia==
*Inside Jabu Jabu's Belly may have been inspired by the dungeon [[Catfish's Maw]] from {{LA}}. Both lie in an enclosed body of water and involve entering the mouth of a giant fish (though the "catfish" is not actually real).
*Inside Jabu Jabu's Belly is the first dungeon in ''Ocarina of Time'' to have a unique dungeon theme, as the themes pertaining to the [[Inside the Deku Tree|Deku Tree]] and [[Dodongo's Cavern]] are both used elsewhere (i.e. in secret, underground [[cave]]s, as well as in the [[Royal Tomb]], respectively).
*[[Link]] cannot get the [[Spiritual Stones#Zora's Sapphire|Zora's Sapphire]] on his own from the room where he fights [[Big Octo]]. He must throw Ruto into the circle to get it.
*In the first room after fighting the [[Big Octo]], there is a ramp to the right. If the player changes the camera angle so that it goes through the wall for a few seconds, a [[Hookshot]] target can be seen.
*This is the only dungeon in the game where Link is accompanied by another character ([[Princess Ruto]]) when he is warping to the dungeon's exit after defeating a boss. Interestingly, it's unknown how she arrived there, since she was taken to the '''second''' floor after taking the sacred Sapphire, and the boss's arena is in the '''first''' floor.
*The music that plays in this dungeon is remixed in {{TWW}}, and is heard when Link first meets [[Jabun]].
*In {{OOT3D}}, Jabu-Jabu can be accessed as an adult using a simple glitch. Link must approach the ice slope that replaces Jabu-Jabu and walk along its left edge. The [[Hover Boots]] can guarantee this. If done correctly, Link will walk into Jabu-Jabu's Belly.
