Where is the memory located in Kakariko Village in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild?

The memory in Kakariko Village is one of the 12 memories Link can recover to piece together his past and learn more about Princess Zelda and the events leading up to Calamity Ganon's return. This memory is tied to the main story and is part of the "Captured Memories" quest, which is given to you by Impa after completing the "Seek Out Impa" main quest. The memory in Kakariko Village is relatively easy to find compared to others, as it is located in a familiar and accessible area. HereÔÇÖs a detailed guide on how to locate and recover this memory.

To begin, you must first speak with Impa in Kakariko Village after completing the initial quest to visit her. She will give you the "Captured Memories" quest, which requires you to find 12 specific locations across Hyrule where Link can recall his lost memories. Each memory is tied to a photograph taken by Princess Zelda, and you will need to match the scenery in the photo to the actual location in the game world. The memory in Kakariko Village is one of the easier ones to find because it is located within the village itself, making it accessible early in the game.

The memory is located near the entrance of Kakariko Village, specifically near the small bridge that leads into the village. To find it, head to the bridge just outside the village gates. As you approach the bridge, you will notice a small area with a few trees and a small pond. This is where the memory is triggered. Stand near the pond and look around until the prompt to "Recover Memory" appears. Once you activate the memory, a cutscene will play, showing a moment from LinkÔÇÖs past involving Princess Zelda.

Before heading to Kakariko Village to recover this memory, itÔÇÖs a good idea to prepare by ensuring you have enough health and stamina. While this memory is not tied to any combat or difficult puzzles, itÔÇÖs always wise to be prepared for any unexpected encounters. You donÔÇÖt need any specific items or equipment to recover the memory, but having a good supply of healing items and a decent weapon can help if you encounter enemies along the way.

One common mistake players make is overlooking the exact location of the memory. While the general area near the bridge is easy to find, the memory trigger is specific to a small spot near the pond. If you donÔÇÖt see the prompt to recover the memory, try moving around the area and adjusting your camera angle. Sometimes, the prompt only appears when you are standing in the right position and facing the correct direction.

Advanced techniques for recovering memories involve using the Sheikah Sensor+ to help locate the exact spot. If you have upgraded your Sheikah Sensor at the Hateno Ancient Tech Lab, you can set it to detect memory locations. This can be especially helpful for finding more obscure memories later in the game. However, for the Kakariko Village memory, the sensor is not necessary since the location is straightforward.

An alternative approach to finding the memory is to explore Kakariko Village thoroughly before attempting to recover it. This can help you familiarize yourself with the village layout and make it easier to locate the memory. Additionally, speaking with NPCs in the village can provide hints about the memoryÔÇÖs location, as some characters may mention the bridge or the pond in their dialogue.

In summary, the memory in Kakariko Village is located near the bridge at the village entrance, close to a small pond. To recover it, approach the pond and look for the prompt to activate the memory. No special items or preparation are required, but itÔÇÖs always good to have healing items and a weapon on hand. Be sure to explore the area thoroughly and adjust your position if the memory prompt doesnÔÇÖt appear immediately. Using the Sheikah Sensor+ can help with more challenging memory locations, but itÔÇÖs not needed for this one. By following these steps, you can easily recover this memory and continue uncovering the story of LinkÔÇÖs past.
