Temple of Time is set in the main hall of the temple, and the door leading to the Chamber of Sages can be seen in the background, as well as the pedestal of the Master Sword. Following up the tradition of large Zelda stages, Temple of Time is currently one of the biggest stages around.

The stage consists of a large straight walkable area and two staircases. Temple of Time is classified as a 'Walk-off stage'. There are no hazards known yet.

Origin
This is the first room of the Temple of Time. In Ocarina of Time, the Temple of Time is located in a secluded area of Hyrule Castle Town, making it easily accessible to the public.

After collecting the three Spiritual Stones and finding the Ocarina of Time, Link travels to the Temple of Time to acquire the Master Sword and enter the Sacred Realm in order to obtain the Triforce before Ganondorf. However, his spirit is unexpectedly sealed away for seven years by the Master Sword, for Link was not yet old enough to become the Hero of Time. When he finally awakens, Rauru the sage explains Hyrule's dire situation to Link, gives him the Light Medallion, and charges him with the task of awakening the other sages to have the enough power to defeat Ganondorf and save Hyrule.

In order to awaken all of the Sages, Link must keep returning to the Temple of Time to use the Pedestal of Time and travel in time back and forth seven years. To help him with this, Sheik teaches the young hero the "Prelude of Light", a melody that Link can play on his ocarina to return to the Temple of Time any time he wishes.

Rauru advises Link to go to the Temple of Time and meet with "the one" who is waiting for the young hero in the Temple of Time. Here, Link meets Sheik, who reveals herself to be Princess Zelda as well as the seventh Sage. After explaining her motives, the princess asks for Link's help one last time to defeat Ganondorf and grants him the Light Arrow, the only weapon that can penetrate the Evil King's defenses.
