Ukoojisi Shrine solution in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

Ukoojisi Shrine lies in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom‘s West Necluda Sky Archipelago southeast of the Great Sky Island. To reveal the shrine you need to find a crystal and move it between a number of different air islands – which is a process that is part of the West Necluda Sky Crystal sanctuary quest.

Our guide will help you find the location of Ukoojisi Shrine and help you solve the puzzles to collect the chest and Light of blessing.

When you’re done, our shrine locations page and interactive Hyrule map can lead you to something else.

Ukoojisi Shrine location

Ukoojisi Shrine can be found in the West Necluda Sky Archipelago region at the coordinates (1470, -2170, 0585). It’s a Rauru’s Blessing shrine, which means the puzzle is outside of the shrine – you must move a crystal to open the shrine itself.

Ukoojisi Shrine puzzle solution

The Ukoojisi Shrine puzzle is set above the sky islands in the West Necluda Sky archipelago. The first step is to get there and launch yourself into the sky from the Popla Hills Skyview Tower southwest of Kakariko Village.

1. Finding the Ukoojisi Shrine begins the “The West Necluda Sky Crystal” shrine quest, where you must find the nearby glowing green crystal and return it to the shrine. You start on Island No. 1 (marked on the map above), where a Zonai glider and Zonai devices await.

2. The crystal is located on a two-tiered sky island — island #2, north of island #1 — at the coordinates (1699, -1841, 0651). You’ll need a sharp weapon (such as an ax or sword) to cut through a series of wooden tendrils blocking access to the West Necluda Sky Crystal. Fire also works.

3. Pick up the crystal to activate the aiming beam pointing at the Ukoojisi Shrine. There’s a Zonai Wing glider at the crystal, as well as Zonai fans, batteries, and a control stick to build a powered plane to take you to the next sky island. Using Ultrahand, attach the Sky Crystal to your glider and take off.

4. Follow the homing beam southwest to Heaven Island No. 3 where Ukoojisi Shrine is located, at coordinates (1470, -2170, 0585). We’ve found that the best way to land your plane is to just crash it at your destination.

5. Bring the crystal to the shrine location to open the shrine.

6. Ukoojisi Shrine is one Rauru’s blessing sanctuary, so all you have to do is walk in and collect your rewards: mighty zonaite shield and Light of blessing.
