Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom – Starting the Fire Temple
Upon reaching the Fire Temple, you’ll see what appears to be Princess Zelda heading towards a large rock. When the cutscene ends, use Yunobo to break this rock apart and enter the temple.
Examine the circular structure to the right to start. Your goal in the Fire Temple is to open the metal gate by unlocking five padlocks. This is achieved by ringing five gongs, each associated with one lock.
Before we start, you may want a couple of things. The first necessity is to bring some arrows. You will need heat resistance too, so buy the armour set from Goron City or bring heat-resistant Elixirs.
Bear in mind that Tears of the Kingdom temples have multiple solutions for some puzzles; these are just the solutions that worked for us in our game.

Fire Temple: Gong 1
Head south and defeat the Soldier Construct. You’ll see some fire hydrants spraying water into the lava. Grab a couple of the stone platforms they’re creating and make a bridge to cross the other side.
Once you’ve crossed, hop in the minecart and activate it. Fire Yunobo at the switch on the left to make sure you take the correct route.
Immediately on your right is another rock you can break with Yunobo. Break it, then head south and defeat the Fire Like. You can find a chest up the wall near the Fire Like.
There’s another rock to break just over the lava to the south, but you might not be able to reach it with Yunobo yet. Grab a nearby fire hydrant and use it to create some stone platforms, then attach them together to form a bridge so you can easily cross.
Inside this room is the first gong you have to ring to unlock the first padlock. Fire Yunobo at it to make it ring.
