Shrines are the dungeons of Breath of the Wild. There are 120 shrines in the game: four that you have to complete in the introductory prologue, and the rest are optional. Shrines are usually short and generally require you to solve a puzzle or beat a Guardian to complete. Some shrines are hidden and require Link to explore to find out where they are and how to access them. All shrines function as teleport points and will always have at least one treasure chest and an altar.
The Champions' Ballad DLC adds 16 more. Each shrine completed earns you a Spirit Orb; trade four Spirit Orbs at a Goddess Statue for a Heart Container or a Stamina Vessel. The shrines below are grouped by the tower region they're in. Click map next to any shrine to see exactly where it is on our interactive map.
Some shrines are hidden until you complete a shrine quest, which is noted below each one. Shrines with a "Blessing" trial have no puzzle inside; the challenge is reaching the shrine. A "Test of Strength" pits you against a Guardian Scout.
