The Jinodok Shrine is one of the more unusual shrines in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, as rather than having to solve a puzzle within the shrine, players will need to solve one in order to get inside. Thankfully, though, it's not a particularly challenging puzzle and rewards players well for their effort and time.

In order to complete the Jinodok Shrine, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom players will need to make use of Link's Ultrahand ability. Other than that, it's really just a case of being surefooted and capable of seeing the bigger picture. For those who are, a great treasure awaits inside the shrine.

Jinodok Shrine Location

The Jinodok Shrine is high up in the air in the Central Hyrule Sky area. The best way to reach it is by hopping from island to island after launching oneself from the top of the Hyrule Field Skyview Tower. That said, those who have been upgrading Link's Energy Cells could opt to use a Zonai device to reach it by heading to the area beneath the island that the shrine is on and then flying straight up. The coordinates of the Jinodok Shrine are -1256, -1482, 1008.

When players first interact with the Jinodok Shrine, they'll be instructed to seek the crystal that's connected to the beam of light. The beam in question points to a nearby island to the northwest of the shrine. Players can glide across to it if they like, but they'll have no way of transporting the crystal back to the shrine, which they'll need to do in order to claim the Light of Blessing. Thankfully, they'll be able to create a makeshift bridge by manipulating the glowing green device on the edge of the island by using Link's Ultrahand ability.

There are two different positions that work here, both of which require the device to be flat so that all three of the beams sticking out are on the same level. Players will then just need to turn the device so that one of the beams is pointing toward Link and another is facing the island on the left. They can then walk across to the island, pick up the crystal, and return it to the Jinodok Shrine. This will allow them to head inside the shrine, where they'll find a chest containing a Diamond and yet another Light of Blessing.

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is available for the Nintendo Switch.
