'''Shrine Pedestals''' are devices in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]'' related to the uncovering of [[Shrine of Trials|Shrines]] in the overworld, and puzzle solving inside the Shrines themselves. Link has to accomplish a task related to the pedestals in order to activate them. The overworld pedestals are usually part of [[Shrine Quest]]s, and usually glow orange before activation, after which they turn blue. Some pedestals are [[Sheikah]]-made, while others are featureless.

===Concave===
===Types of Pedestals===
====Concave====
Concave Pedestals require the placement of [[Ancient Orb]]s in their middle cavity to activate the pedestals. In cases requiring multiple pedestals and orbs, placing an orb at the wrong pedestal may make it disappear and return to its original location, or simply not activate. They may also be featureless and located at the base of statues or pillars. Concave pedestals are also part of in-shrine puzzles, where they are at ground-level.

Flat Pedestals require Link standing on them under different circumstances, or projecting shadows from the sun or moon on them. Some pedestals are embedded on mountainsides.
