Well, I guess this could sort of be a duplicate to this (http://zeldadungeon.net/forum/showthread.php?t=1844) thread, but I guess this one is more specific.
For me, this is pretty much a tie. A tie between the Sprit Temple, and the Shadow Temple.
The Shadow Temple had an amazing atmosphere... It's such a dark temple (hence the name SHADOW, lol), and it's pretty difficult, and I like difficult temples. You just never know what's around the corner in this one. You turn your back and you immediately get trampled by a ReDead, snatched by a Ceiling Master, or sliced by a trap. The Dungeon is filled with Illusions, and you need to use your Lens of Truth to see through them, and I thought it was pretty fun to try and figure all of that out. The whole Dungeon is filled with torture equipment, such as revolving scythes, and there is blood on floors, walls, and ceilings in a few rooms. The dungeon was so scary, and I was on the edge of my couch the whole time. I just loved it so much. Bongo Bongo was also one of my favorite bosses. He was difficult, and it was very fun to have to use the Lens of Truth to find him before you could shoot him. I like how when the fight starts, you get a glance of him, and then you can't see him, so you kinda have that feeling of "lolwat" before you use the Lens of Truth again to continue fighting him.
The Spirit Temple was also amazing. It wasn't just one of those temples that you go through normally and finish it, while going through a few puzzles and fighting some enemies. This one had a real story behind it. There was everything with Nabooru, the Boss, Twinrova, wasn't just some random monster, she acted normally (as Koume and Kotake) and was more of a "real enemy" that you could relate to. I thought it was pretty cool that this dungeon was basically "two parts", in the way that you can go through as a child and as an adult. That's why I also liked the Stone Tower in Majora's Mask so much. The temple was very different as a child and as an adult, because the two ages of Link have different capabilities and limits, so it was pretty fun that there was a big variety of puzzles. Iron Knuckles/Darknuts are pretty much my favorite enemy to fight in all the games that they are in, and it was fun to fight Nabooru as an Iron Knuckle. Twinrova was also an interesting fight. I loved the two phases of the fight and using the mirror shield to bring Koume and Kotake together then using it to stun them. Overall awesome temple.

The Forest Temple.
For me, it was the most brilliant temple in terms of atmosphere, design, and aesthetics. It was one weird place, styled a lot like an Escher painting. Weird, eerie music, misty hallways in some parts, surreal design, and the presence of ghosts (like the Poe Sisters) made it a really neat place.
It also helped that it was the first temple done and the first dungeon after becoming an adult. It added on to the newly dire situation in the plot, and it felt a lot more dangerous than any place you'd been to before. Later temples were like that too, but the effect was less because you'd already gone through it in the Forest Temple.
And finally, the boss. It was awesome. For me, it was always the hardest fight. Took me forever to figure out how to beat him. And then there was dialogue from Ganondorf as Phantom Ganon was banished... it was awesome.
But above all, I love the temple because it's so creepy and surreal. In some ways, it makes me think of a haunted mansion or some kind of madhouse.

The Water Temple is fantastic, brilliant and amazing. It was one of the most challenging Temples in the game and it had such a nice atmosphere, such lovely tunes & such a great "mini"-boss.
If Iīll ever write a book about a Temple in the world of Zelda it will be about the Water Temple in Ocarina of Time! Thatīs how much I love it folks ;)

My absolute favorite has to be the Spirit Temple. The whole mysteriousness of it, is just amazing. It is the only Temple that you cant even get close to the entrance until you're an adult (Forset= Learn Saria's Song, Fire, you can get there if you go into the entrance next to the Great Fairy fountain, Water, you can stand on top the the temple, Shadow, you are right outside of it when you play Zelda's Lullaby to open the Composer Brother's grave)
I also enjoyed the idea of playing it as a kid. I must say the MQ version fustrated me to no end, but in the original version it was one of the easiest dungeons enemy wise, but puzzle wise it added just enough edge to keep you thinking throughout the entire dungeon. And that I enjoyed very much.
My other favorite, and its mostly for the music is the Forest Temple. It is just a calming atmosphere with danger toiling around. I just love the music sound track.
I've noticed that I'm always a little bit different when it comes to the temples in OoT. I like the one the most that everyone else hates. The Fire Temple.
I love linear dungeons. I always have, and I always will. So when I come upon one that is basically go from one room, go to the left and right side and get the few gorons, go to the next one and do the same, I'm happy. And I loved the boss of the place. Nothing better than going to through a long dungeon to get to the end and smack a dragon in the head with a metal hammer. :)

The Spirit Temple is not only my favorite dungeon in Ocarina of Time, it may be my favorite dungeon in any game I've ever played.
This is due in large part to the music. Most of the temple music was either low-key and atmospheric (all the child dungeons and the water temple) or more overtly creepy (Fire Temple and Shadow Temple). The Forest Temple theme was an exception, in that it was spine-tingling and atmospheric at the same time, but it seems to fit in the same camp as the Water Temple. The Spirit Temple had grandiose, epic music, and the loud parts kicked in as soon as you entered the temple and saw those towering cobra heads.
That might have set the stage, but the actual design was what really made it work. Starting out as a child makes the dungeon seem genuinely larger-than-life; you've been playing as an adult for so long by that point that approaching it from a child's perspective, where everything looks big and kind of wacky, brings the game full-circle. When you finally do play it as an adult, enough epic moments are thrown at you that the dungeon still manages to feel larger than life. Moving mirrors, melting off the statue's face, climbing a shifting wall, trying to keep those damn Stalfos on that switch--of all the dungeons, it's the one that feels the most ancient, the most alive, and the most monumental. I can think of no better ending to Ocarina of Time.
My second-favorite would have to be the Forest Temple. Forests are inherently mysterious--this was captured as early as young Link's first venture into the Lost Woods--and as you delve deeper into Kokiri Forest, things get progressively more mysterious. The Forest Temple takes that to an extreme. Along with the Spirit Temple, it's one of the first things I'd point to when people try to argue that Ocarina of Time's graphics didn't age well...the design is so well-managed, with vines climbing up tattered stone walls and vast, open courtyards...that this argument seems to have little merit.
When I bought Ocarina of Time, I was expecting a European-style medieval quest. It didn't deliver exactly what I was expecting--its tone was far more unique than I was ready to accept. But the Forest Temple did manage to feel almost Arthurian, the perfect fantasy setting with the perfect tone, not to mention the puzzles and enemies to match. It's for this reason that it takes second place.

mine is the shadow temple, although i also loved the forest temple and all it's mysteries. Like why saria can't be found in your future (i couldn't fathom why she would be gone my first play through). the Poe sisters can be found there and would help to explain the presence of phantom ganon as they are all spirits. The boss fight is a foreshadowing of your final battle with ganondorf and the kokori forest is saved in the process.
but the Shadow temple.... ohhh baby it's the dark bitter chocolate sauce on top of the strawberry that is zelda. no joke.
Nocturn of Shadows is a masterpiece and warps you to a convenient spot in the game. Opening the door to the temple is definitly a highlight of the game.
DIN'S FIRE!!!
then to top it off they throw the hover boots in your face like bam! nothing makes me happier then running on invisible platforms with my hover boots.
also this temple is beneath the graveyard, what does that mean? lots of undead, an you know you can never kill too much undead.
Something else I enjoy is the boat ride that only responds to zelda's lullaby. it symbolizes death in hyrule for me. sailing through an abyss while fighting off enemies only to come out at the end.. alive. this is a very important moment for link and definitely deserved it's own cut scene. unfortunatly 64-bit probably couldn't handle it.
and then theres bongo bongo a shadow creature that enjoys the mindless beat of his own drum inside the darkness of his dungeon. YES sounds like me! he is a fun boss to kill and feels a bit more rewarding because you know you have finished the temples.

I've noticed that I'm always a little bit different when it comes to the temples in OoT. I like the one the most that everyone else hates. The Fire Temple.
Not true Josh, I really enjoyed the Fire Temple too, i don't get the point why people are hating this one. Well it's not my favorite vote but i really liked the Fire Temple. I remember i was always falling down in the room where the Megaton Hammer is placed, so i have to start over like 3/6 times. I have also a weak spot for fire places like this. I have to say i got stuck in OoT; Master quest's Fire Temple. Fire Temple should be my favorite vote out of those temples.
Alright i gonna start with the Forest Temple. This one is really my last favorite, but that doesn't mean i hate this dungeon. I didn't like the way it was and the whole poe idea was disappointing. I don't like forest based dungeons in general, the element of the dungeon has a role in my favorites, but the Forest Temple was challenging, in the beginning i got stuck in this one for a simple Small Key, the 3 skeletons gave me also a big challenge and needed like 3 fairies in a bottle to beat them. And that for the simple Bow and Arrows. I loved the last pink poe though and the green one with the puzzle. I never saw there was a fake piece in it and make a real mess with this puzzle. As for the purple one the battle was epic, but it didn't fool me with it's traitorous rotation.
The boss Phantom Ganon was of the best bosses, even i didn't like the whole Temple. Reflection his Shadow Balls was enjoyable except if he's on the lower floor.
The second Temple, the Fire Temple as i said is my second favorite. I like the master quest version ways more than the original. Fire based things are also on my top favorite but saving the Goron's was a nice job, and the way they talked about Volvagia is gonna eat them. The room with the rolling stone blocks was the most annoying though, falling down was really fun, and starting over again. It gives me more time to spend and it always happened to me, i like if they are deep gates into a Dungeon.
The boss from the Fire Temple was my favorite out of them all, the Dragon Volvagia. In the beginning i didn't know somethin about hanging on the edge se Volvagia can't hurt you. I have a weak spot for Dragons and the battle against it was just fun, but i died a lot of times what gives me a real challenging boss. Alright now it's a piece of cake for me.
Water Temple, yeah what can i say about this? I got stuck for a real long time and even gave up the whole game. Water Temple is my fourth Temple, i never knew about the place in the center of the temple, the pilar looking structure. And that was not only that, i also didn't see the block were you have to use the Spng of Time, just call it Time block then. For the key i searched for days, week even month's without result. I never used a walkthrough or any help from other, but after a long time i figured every out, and i could only laugh about it now. Water Temple was the most challenging, but changing your boots every time was really annoying, and just end up as also a annoying Dungeon.
The boss here was nothing, not actually something special or challenging. I don't know it's name anymore but it did return in Twilight Princess, or it only looks a like.
Now for my favorite out of them all! The Shadow Temple. If there is a dungeon i would like, is it the darker dungeons. The torture stuff was just amazing and scared me really out in the past. Overall this Temple was pretty challenging, and you have to do the Bottom of The Well first for the Lense of Truth. I remember i was looking for the Hover Boots outside of this Dungeon, i didn't know about the place in the corner. It's also the first dungeon i was with blood inside it, same for the well. I gave a real scary atmosphere and i like this kind of dungeons. The design and the difficuly of it, even Bongo Bongo, my second favorite boss was pretty challenging. he moves his hands to fast and shooting is his eye was the biggest trouble i had, like Volvagia he's now a piece of cake.
The last Temple is the Spirit Temple on the 3th place. It has my favorite sound track and gives it a real egyptian atmosphere, better say a tomb like place like you see in the movies as Indiana Jones. The Master Quest version was ways better than the original, like the Water Temple i got stuck reall fast in the middle biggest room of the Temple. I never knew about Din's Fire below the door. The iron Knuckles has also their first appearance, and they are also my favorite enemy. Back in time i hated they because they killed me soon as possible, they are dealing a lot of damage like i've seen with Volvagia's breath/rocks. I like the way to do the first part with child Link and the second with Adult Link.
The Boss, Twinrove or better know as the sorceress sisters was a totally amazing battle. Reflecting their attacks was really fun to do, it was only annoying if they are not on the screen anymore. I loved the ''conflict'' between them at last.
As for in the Ganon's Castle the Fire room was amazing, especially in Master Quest.
To say it all shortly for now in, my vote is Shadow Temple;
1. Shadow
2. Fire
3. Spirit
4. Water
5. Forest

This topic is way similar to another topic, "Best and worst temples in OOT".
I posted in that topic :P.
Anyway, back to the topic, my favorite temple is the water temple.
I love puzzles, and the water temple is the only puzzling temple.
First off, the music is very cool. It's a peaceful music, though it isn't as peaceful as the Ice Cavern's music.
Second off, something great about this temple is that you can only use the hook/longshot underwater, so you can't kill enemies underwater with a sword, which makes the dungeon much challenging.
It also includes a lot of backtracking (because you need to change the water level), and some nice puzzles to keep you busy some hours.
Also, it includes my favorite mini-boss: dark link.
It's more challenging than some bosses, and I would like it to be a boss instead of a mini-boss.
Morpha is also a fun boss to battle with, but I feel all the water at the middle of the room kinda ruined the boss battle.
SuperSilly
10-09-2009, 11:24 PM
Oh, I would say the Forest Temple is my favorite temple in OoT by far.
First off, it ramps up the difficulty from the child dungeons. When you enter the Forest Temple you realize it's a whole new ball game. Enemies are tougher, puzzles are slightly more difficult, and the dungeon is more time consuming than the child ones. There are more difficult dungeons after this (Water Temple anyone?) but this one stands out, and was 2nd most difficult in the game for me.
I also love the creepy feeling of the Forest Temple. The atmoshpere of this dungeon just screams haunted house to me for some reason. I think it's because the Forest Temple seems like it was lived in, like it was a home, before somthing awful happened to its inhabitants. It seems silent, waiting, watching. I would say that it kind of reminds me of the Outlook Hotel from Steven King's The Shining.
I loved the idea of the Poe Sisters as well. It adds greatly to the haunted house feeling. I always imagine that they were the previous inhabitants of the Forest Temple, and I wouldn't be suprised if they were. One of the most memorable puzzles in any video game for me is the puzzle where you push blocks during a timer to make a picture of the Poe Sister, Amy. I felt so rushed, it took me a few tries, but when I finished the puzzle I felt pretty acomplished.

My favorite is the Spirit Temple because it is sort of a challenge and it introduces the Ironknuckle in this game he is one of my favorite enemies. Also to get to the spirit temple you need to go through the Gerudo Fortress.

I haven't been to any other temples in OoT because I just got this game but I completed Forest and Water straight after (I wasn't bothered to do Fire). I don't know why but i just said kinda wow to myself at how this temple is designed. And those outside meadows are just beautiful (when you defeat all the monsters of course!)

The Spirit Temple is my favorite temple. Mainly the fact that you play as both Child and Adult Link in the temple. When I went to the Spirit Temple as a child, I was really messed up for a while (after all; I hadn't played as child Link for a long time.)

My favourite would have to be the Spirit Temple. Actually, the entire desert area was pure concentrated awesome. The Spirit Temple was a dusty, long-forgotten place of worship, and it was very atmospheric. I loved the puzzles involving the Mirror Shield and the Iron Knuckle was kinda scary at first, but ended up being a blast to fight. As was Twinrova. All of it backed up by astoundingly epic and mystical music. The only thing that outdoes it is the section just before it, where you have to infiltrate Gerudo's Fortress to rescue the carpenters. Gerudo Desert was one of the best locations ever in a Zelda game.

i think the shadow temple is incredible. Firstly the atmosphere is amazing at how dark it really is. Its a really eerie temple to be in. When i first played the game as a kid i was constantly freaked out by this temple. (I was like 8 mind you) Also i think this temple is most intricate in the civil war. Clearly this temple was used as some kind of torture area for someone at some point before Ocarina of Time. The civil war was likely that time. I would like to know who ran the temple and who was being tortured. Its so interesting in every way. And one more thing about the temple itself, it easily has the coolest enemies/obstacles

My favorite temple in OOT is the spirit temple because you get the mirror shield and the silver gauntlets which you can lift heavy things and with the mirror shield you can reflect sunlight and you can never lose the mirror shield in the whole entire game.

My favorite temples in OOT are the Spirit Temple and the Shadow Temple. I really enjoyed both of them the much. They were both challenging, had a great atmosphere and excellent music. But I have to say my favorite between those two is the Spirit Temple.
It was more challenging and fun IMO. First, the boss Twinrova was harder than Bongo Bongo. Plus, the battle against Twinrova was truly epic. Definitely one of my favorite boss i the series. The mini-bosses in the Spirit Temple were tougher (Iron Knuckles ;)), as well as the enemies. The puzzles were awesome and fun, especially those where we needed the Mirror Shield. :) The fact that the temple had two parts in it, the child's and the adult's, added more fun. The music was truly amazing and added a lot to the egyptian atmospehere. Just the feeling of being in that temple was great. :)
So, my favorite temple in OOT is the Spirit Temple. It was fun all the way trought. :D

I loved the Spirit Temple, it was just really fun. For the last temple it was pretty straight-forward, but still somewhat of a thinker.
IF you you still like Darknuts, go out and play LoZ!
You learn to hate them.
No, they are great! I always wished for a whole bunch of those in a N64 Zelda game.
I still have to check out the WW.

My favourite is the Spirit temple.
Firstly i just adore the music of the Temple.
I can easily listen to its music for ten minutes when inside the Temple.
It suits its music so perfectly.
And another thing is that you must change from big link to small link as each one can only do specific areas.
You have to use small link first as he crawls through a small hole after talking with Nabooru.
It also has a very Egyptian feel to it as im into things like that Pharoahs etc.
Her is is the Spirit temple music.

Forest. Definitely Forest. That's the best dungeon Zelda's ever had. The music, the poes, the layout, the creepiness, the twisted corridors...simply the best.
Arbiters Ground
04-26-2011, 08:52 PM
Forest because it has the most notable music, and I like Phantom Ganon. It's very twisted, Labyrinth like, and it's also the prettiest temple.
Even though I know this discussion is mainly about Ocarina, I've always felt like Majora's Mask's Stone Temple was insanely clever. And I'm a bit more critical of Majora's Mask as a Zelda fan.

The Forest Temple. It's got a great atmosphere to it, the puzzles were fun to figure out, you get the first taste of good challenging hand to hand combat with the Stalfos, and the Poe Sisters' paintings were a unique and brilliant concept. Then after all that, you get to fight Phantom Ganon, which is my favorite boss battle.

I really like the Forest Temple.
I think I like it the most because it is the first temple you play when you are an adult, and it just has this awesome feeling.
I also like the music although it is creepy, but when I hear it, I automatically think of this game.
I love all the temples in that each has a very unique atmosphere, just one thing of many that OoT did masterfully. Each temple has a very unique feel and unique layouts. No two were any alike. So in that sense I love them all for different reasons. If I had to chose though I would probably choose the Fire Temple. It's associated with my favorite race the Gorons plus it is just a very interesting structure in itself.

Definately the Forest Temple. Like Seth, I love all the temples. But I have to say I love Forest the most. I love how it was set up. The BGM, the puzzles, the boss battle, everything was interesting to me.

Glad to know someone else thinks of it like I do. :) I also loved the Forest Temple partially because of its spot as the first Adult Link dungeon, and it served its purpose really well, introducing the player to a lot of the more difficult themes of the late game dungeons as well as to the more difficult challenges. And of course it was awesomely creepy. :D

Oh, I completely agree. Well, except I hate the Fire Temple. :P
Ocarina of Time did a really good job of bringing a variety of different atmospheres to the dungeons of Ocarina of Time, and I especially loved how they did so with the Adult Link section of the game. Despite wildly different settings, the Young Link dungeons were kept pretty similar in atmosphere in a lot of ways. But the temples were completely different, each feeling like a completely different world. It was amazing. :)
My favorite was the Shadow Temple. It unveiled certain mysteries of Hyrule's royal family. It definetly showed the dark side of Hyrule. It's malevolent tune made me shake sometimes, too. Also, it had some pretty fun puzzles to it; i just didn't like the Stalfos part! :xd: Anyway, all temples have their own unique designs and stories to tell!

Water Temple is the best dungeon ever. I did not find it that hard.

Shadow Temple for me, no brain-er! LOVED the creepy, haunting, and dark atmosphere that the temple had. You didn't know when you were gonna walk over a trick hole on the floor that only the mask of truth could see, or find an invisible door in the wall. The enemies in it were fantastic too. The Dead Hand, Stalfos' on the ghost ship, the Re-Deads, everything about it made me excited to play the darkest temple in the game. It represented the dark side of Hyrule as well as Zelda which I enjoyed seeing immensely. It was also a bit challenging (for me anyway) which always make it good. Plus, the boss was fantastic as well. Favorite boss in OOT! Loved all the temples for sure (they are what made the game of course!) but the Shadow Temple and it's haunting halls have a special place in my heart! :)
