How to complete North Gerudo Sky Archipelago's sphere puzzle

Mayasiar Shrine is a shrine located within The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom's Gerudo Highlands Sky region.

Our guide will help you find the Mayasiar Shrine location, solve its puzzles, and walk you through the Starview Island mirror and lights puzzle to collect the chest and Light of Blessing.

When you’re done, our shrine locations page or interactive Hyrule map can direct you toward something else to do.

The Mayasiar Shrine is found within the Gerudo Highlands Sky region. The exact coordinates are (-3544, -0320, 1965).

The shrine is tucked away in the North Gerudo Sky Archipelago in a place called Starview Island, which is the big sphere that looks like the Death Star. You’ll start your journey toward it at Gerudo Highlands Skyview Tower.

1. Use Gerudo Highlands Skyview Tower to take to the sky. Once in the air, glide northeast toward the closest visible island, around (-3664-0852, 1965) on the map. (You’re going the right direction if you see the Starview Island sphere island in front of you.)

2. Land on the island to find a Zonai floating block and rockets. Use Ultrahand to blast yourself off toward the sphere.

3. You likely won't have the height or momentum to make it all the way around to the other side of the sphere, so once you’re in the air, head northeast again to the next visible island, and use Ultrahand to build another floating block/rocket combo to get back up in the air.

4. Once you’re positioned across from the southeast side of the sphere, paraglide toward the entrance, which faces to the northeast. Sail in to discover Starview Island.

To unlock Mayasiar Shrine, you have to complete Starview Island's mirror and lights puzzle. Feel free to do your Indiana Jones impression throughout.

1. Paraglide down to the center platform in Starview Island. Push the wheel on the main platform to direct the lights toward the mirror on the outer platforms.

2. Jump out to ride the gust of wind back up to the higher levels. On the platform opposite the entrance you’ll find another wheel with a mirror on top. If the middle light is placed correctly, there should be light bouncing into it from the lower mirror's source. Rotate the wheel mirror clockwise to position it toward yet another mirror just below and to the left of the Starview Island entrance.

3. Paraglide across the room to the mirror you just illuminated. Push its wheel counterclockwise about 180 degrees to position it toward another unlit mirror on the south side of the room.

4. Paraglide over to the newly lit mirror and push wheel to position it toward the unlit mirror in the center of the room. If all the mirrors are in the correct position, the center mirror should light up and direct the beam toward the yellow sensor, activating the shrine.

5. Enter the shrine to find a chest containing a star-fragment staff. Activate the shrine sigil to receive a Light of Blessing.
