| Zora's Domain is located in eastern Hyrule, behind the [[Sleepless Waterfall]], the source of [[Zora's River]]. The Zora who dwell here are a secluded race, only allowing those who know "[[Zelda's Lullaby]]" — generally only taught to members of the [[Royal Family of Hyrule]] — to pass through the waterfall and into their Domain. However, Zora's Domain can also be entered through an underwater tunnel in [[Lake Hylia]].
| |
| | |
| Zora's Domain is ruled by [[King Zora XVI]], and contains little besides [[King Zora's Chamber]], the [[High Dive Practice Spot]], and a [[Zora Shop#The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|small shop]]. From Zora's Domain, [[Link]] can enter [[Zora's Fountain]]; here, [[Lord Jabu-Jabu]], the Zora's patron [[deity]], resides at his [[Altar of Lord Jabu-Jabu|altar]].

| When Link returns to Zora's Domain after his seven-year slumber in the [[Sacred Realm]], he finds the entire Domain encased in ice. He makes his way to the frozen Zora's Fountain, enters the [[Ice Cavern]] by traversing the floating ice blocks, and obtains the [[Iron Boots]] hidden there. However, even after Link successfully navigates the [[Water Temple]] and defeats [[Morpha]], Zora's Domain remains frozen — although according to [[Princess Ruto]], the Domain will return to its original state in time. This is evidenced during the game's end credits, in which Zora's Domain is fully thawed and its Zora residents are seen celebrating at [[Lon Lon Ranch]] with the rest of Hyrule.

| A square hole can be seen in the bedrock underneath the water in Zora's Domain, near the entrance. Many players assume that this hole is an unremoved beta element that would have been the entrance to another dungeon, often speculated to be the [[Unicorn Fountain]]. It is possible to get underneath the ice of Zora's Domain as an adult using a [[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Glitches#Get beneath the ice in Zora's Domain as an adult|glitch]]. Upon reaching the square hole using the Iron Boots, however, it is revealed to be completely blocked off.

| Although never visited in-game, the [[Nintendo Gallery]] confirms the fact that [[Laruto]], the former [[Sages of the Master Sword|Sage of Earth]], was born in Zora's Domain prior to the [[Great Flood]].

| Zora's Domain is located north of [[Hyrule Castle Town]] and Lake Hylia, in the [[Lanayru Province]]. Again, it is the home of the Zora race. It is the only location where the sacred [[Reekfish]] can be caught. Many Zoras reside here, including [[Prince Ralis]] once he returns from [[Kakariko Village]], who seats himself on his [[Queen Rutela|mother]]'s throne.

| Zora's Domain consists of a throne room atop a large waterfall and pool. Initially frozen by Zant, it is thawed when Link and [[Midna]] warp a burning-hot [[lava]] rock from [[Death Mountain]] into the throne room. [[Zora's River]] is located to the south, and the westward entrance to [[Snowpeak Ruins]] becomes accessible once the Domain is unfrozen. The throne room can be reached by asking a Zora at the base of the waterfall to swim Link up. Also, in [[Wolf Link|wolf form]], Link can jump up using Midna's multiple-jump technique on the nearby ledges and rocks. Finally, Link can climb the rocks beside the waterfall with his [[Clawshot]]. At the bottom of the the pool within the throne room is a [[Underwater Goron|Goron]] trapped inside the volcanic rock Midna warped there. He gives Link a [[Bomb Bag]] if he frees the Goron using [[Water Bomb]]s.
