Forest Temple (Ocarina of Time)


 * Note: For the Forest Temple in Twilight Princess, go here.

The Forest Temple is a location found in both The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time and The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. This article will focus on the former. In Ocarina of Time, the Forest Temple can only be traversed as an adult when the player goes into the future. It'll be the first temple you go through as an adult. It can be located in the end of the Lost Woods where Saria was once located.

It's a complicated labyrinth of puzzles and enemies that contain the famous twisted tunnel that alters the players position depending on if it's twisted or not. Before entering the temple the player will have to fight two Wolfos. After entering inside, Link will witness four Poe Sisters go their separate ways. He'll be required to come in possession of the Bow and destroy every last one of them, and then face off against Phantom Ganon, the temple's boss.

Speculation
Some say that long ago the Kokiri lived in this castle (it has been proven that it is a castle by looking at it from the outside) long ago seeing how close it is to the Kokiri Village and even more so the Lost Woods. It is also speculated that the Forbidden Woods in The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, is in fact the Forest Temple with a different layout.
