{{Main|Kakariko Village (Four Swords Adventures)}}

In {{TP}}, Kakariko Village is located in the [[Eldin Province]], right below [[Death Mountain]] and just {{exp|GCN version; southwest in the Wii version|southeast}} of [[Hyrule Field]]. It has several homes, as well as a {{Term|TPHD|Bomb Shop|link}}, an [[Elde Inn|inn]], a [[sanctuary (Twilight Princess)|sanctuary]], a [[Eldin Spring|spring]], and a [[Hot Spring|hot spring]]. Moreover, a [[Kakariko Village Graveyard|graveyard]] can be found right behind the sanctuary, housing the tombstone of the [[King Zora]]. According to [[Rutela]], Kakariko Village is considered to be a "sacred place for the [[Zora]] people" since that is where they take their eternal rest.<ref>{{Cite|Kakariko Village is a sacred place for the Zora people. It is where we take our eternal rest.|Rutela|TP}}</ref> Many of the game's important plot events occur in this village and many items can be bought and found here, such as [[Bomb]]s, the [[Hawkeye]], a [[Hylian Shield]], and the [[Zora Armor]].

Other notable items Link can receive here are empty [[Bottle]]s, the [[Smooth Gem]], after its quest is initiated and it is purchased from the village merchant, the [[Bee Badge]], and the [[Bug Net]]. Link can also take part in the [[Fortune's Choice]] mini-game, which is found on the east side of town. [[Gramps]] is found in the western region of the village, and teaches Link about using ''StreetPass''.

Kakariko Village's Lorulean counterpart is {{Term|ALBW|Thieves' Town|link}}, which is home to the [[Thieves' Hideout (A Link Between Worlds)|Thieves' Hideout]] and is where Link will find the portrait of the Sage [[Osfala]].

Link first visits Kakariko Village at the advice of the [[Old Man]] in the [[Sanctuary (A Link to the Past)|Sanctuary]], who tells him to look for [[Sahasrahla]]. However, when he arrives to Sahasrahla's house, he finds it in the care of his wife, who tells him that Sahasrahla left when he found out that [[Agahnim]] was responsible for the missing maidens and does not know where he has gone.<ref>{{Cite Book|quote= Well, young man, when the maidens began to disappear, the rumors began to fly. When Sahasrahla heard that the wizard might be responsible, he said, 'so it has begun...' and disappeared himself! [...] I'm sorry, but you know wise men like him... They often wander off without notice, in search of enlightenment. If you ask in the village, someone may know where he is... If I may ask, why are you looking for him?|book= A Link to the Past comic|publisher= Nintendo Power|page= 5}}</ref> After Sahasrahla's wife tells Link about legends spoken about the Master Sword, the young hero leaves Sahasrahla's house. However, [[Informant Woman|a villager]], who is actually one of Agahnim's minions, alerts the [[Soldier (Enemy)|soldiers]] to Link's presence.<ref>{{Cite Book|quote= Hey! It's HIM! [...] You are under arrest by order of the king! Get moving!|book= A Link to the Past comic|publisher= Nintendo Power|page= 7}}</ref> The young hero manages to escape their grasp and stumbles upon [[Sahasrahla's Grandson|a boy]] who was asked by Sahasrahla to watch over his wife.<ref>{{Cite Book|quote=The old man asked me to take care of his wife while he went away.|book= A Link to the Past comic|publisher= Nintendo Power|page= 9}}</ref> After being convinced of Link's good nature,<ref>{{Cite Book|quote= Look at me! Do I LOOK like a bad guy?|book= A Link to the Past comic|publisher= Nintendo Power|page= 9}}</ref> the boy tells him where Saharsahla can be found, and so Link travels to the [[Eastern Palace]].

After acquiring the [[Pendant of Courage]], Link returns to Kakariko to find clues about the remaining two pendants,<ref>{{Cite Book|quote= Leaving Sahasrahla, Link returns to Kakariko Village to look for clues to the location of the remaining two pendants...|book=A Link to the Past|publisher= Nintendo Power comic|page= 4}}</ref> but he finds the [[Library]] has been set on fire by soldiers.<ref>{{Cite Book|quote=The House of Books is ablaze! The soldiers must have laid torch to it!|book= A Link to the Past comic|publisher= Nintendo Power|page= 4}}</ref> After rescuing the Librarian inside, Link obtains the [[Book of Mudora]] from him after the Librarian realizes that Link is the Legendary Hero of Hyrule. Before Link can head out to the desert, Sahasrahla's grandson gives Link a hang glider that he can use to traverse the [[Desert of Mystery]] with ease.<ref>{{Cite Book|quote=Hey, buddy! I just remembered! I have something that may help! Sahasrahla showed it to me! It's a bird that you can ride on!|book= A Link to the Past comic|publisher= Nintendo Power|page= 8}}</ref>

Link, ready to rescue Princess Zelda from Hyrule Castle now that he has obtained the [[Master Sword]], heads to Kakariko Village one final time with his friends, but finds out that all approaches to the castle are blocked by Agahnim's soldiers.<ref>{{Cite Book|quote= '''Link''': So all the approaches to the castle are blocked by Agahnim's sentries? '''Boy:''' Yep! Even approaching the castle means certain death!|book= A Link to the Past comic|publisher= Nintendo Power|page= 5}}</ref> The librarian then comes up with the idea of making a hot air balloon to carry him into the castle, which both Sahasrahla's wife and Sahasrahla's grandson help to make.<ref>{{Cite Book|quote= That gives me an '''idea'''! I believe that a large bubble...filled with hot hair...will float! But to make such a thing...in one day...will be...hard work|book= A Link to the Past comic|publisher= Nintendo Power|page= 5 and 6}}</ref> As the full moon rises, Link departs from Kakariko Village riding the hot air balloon and heads to the castle to save the princess from Agahnim's clutches.

The name "Kakariko" may have originated from ''cocorico'', a French onomatopoeia for the sound of a crowing rooster. It may also come from the Spanish verb ''cacarear'', which means the crowing of a chicken. This is probably due to the fact that {{Plural|Series|Cucco|link}} appear in every incarnation of {{Term|Series|Kakariko Village}}. The {{Term|Series|Kakariko Village|display=Village}}'s name in the French versions is in fact ''Cocorico''.
