Solution to the Sinakawak Shrine puzzle in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom

There are three puzzles you must solve in Sinakawak Shrine to reach the end and obtain the Light of Blessing, and an optional puzzle to reach a chest. Here’s how to solve all four puzzles:

Sinakawak Shrine Puzzle Solution 1

To solve the first puzzle in the Sinakawak Shrine, you must combine balloons, wood, and candles to create a floating platform and reach the top of the room, but be careful! It is very easy to burn wood with a candle. It’s annoying if this happens, but the wood goes back to where you found it, so you can try again.

The first step here is to attach a small rectangular piece of wood to the center of a larger square shaped piece of wood. You can get this wood by using Ultrahand on the surrounding ramps.

Next, use Ultrahand to attach two of the balloons to either side of the rectangular piece of wood in the middle of your creation. Move your creation close to the wall if it isn’t already there.

For the last part of this puzzle, you need to place two candles on the edge of the square piece of wood, near the balloons. We recommend standing on your creation to place the second candle, as it will begin to float when you bring the candle closer to the balloon.

How to get the chest at Sinakawak Shrine

Before starting the last puzzle, you may want to first get the bonus chest in the Sinakawak Shrine. To access the chest, you must take the large ball located on the lowest floor of the next chamber to the upper floor, and place it in the large hole.

To do this, drop down to the bottom floor and use Ultrahand to bring a balloon to the flame area, hiding behind another wall. Use Ultrahand again to bring the metal ball closer to the opposite wall from the flames, then connect one of the streams of fire to the ball.

The last step is a little tricky to do, but your goal is to attach the balloon to the ball so that the jet of fire points at the balloon, making it float towards the ceiling.

Once you’ve floated the balloon, go to the ladder on the opposite side of the room and go up and around to where the ball and balloon stopped, then separate the ball and place it in the large hole, opening it up. the nearby door.

That chest is finally yours! Go through the door to open it and get an opal for your troubles, then move on to the final puzzle.

Sinakawak Shrine 3 Puzzle Solution

For the final ‘Lifting Device’ puzzle in the Sinakawak Shrine, you need to do exactly that and create a platform for the small metal ball to float on, then place it in the small hole in the ground.

The first step is to slide down to the bottom floor and place the small metal ball in the center of the piece of wood with Ultrahand, then place four candles on each of the four edges of the piece of wood.
