“Legend of Zelda”: Zora Domain~(Yucatán, Mexico)

Before I start writing…

 

Cenotes such as these dated back to the Mayan times. They are natural sinkholes filled with water from the eternally rainy Yucatán area, once the Mayans’ main water source and also used for human sacrifice (and those two things really do not mix, in my opinion??).

Okay, so enough education!

I thought it looked rather similar to the Zora Domain in Twilight Princess and Ocarina of Time.

And now, the official entrance in Ocarina of Time:

The graphics are so cute…

Aaand in Twilight Princess:

And more pictures of the cenote!
