Within the world of Genshin Impact, Fontaine will introduce a whole new mysterious series of Shrines of Depths for adventurers. These ancient structures contain luxurious chests with valuable rewards, hence becoming important stops no traveler should miss to upgrade their journey. One needs to possess corresponding Fontaine Shrine of Depths Keys for them to be opened.

Comprehensive Guide to Fontaine Shrine Locations

As of Version 5.3, there is a total of ten Shrines of Depths in Fontaine, each located in very unique and, at times, challenging terrains.

1. West-southwest of Elynas Shrine

Located north of the southwestern Teleport Waypoint at Elynas, this shrine is on the side of a mountain near some ruins that are patrolled by a Ruin Hunter. Be careful because the surrounding enemy is close.

2. Elton Trench Shrine

This shrine is south of the central Teleport Waypoint in Elton Trench and is submerged underwater, amidst a bed of metal wreckage. Players will have to utilize Fontaine's diving mechanics to reach it.

3. North of Court of Fontaine

This shrine is situated south of the highest Teleport Waypoint at the Court of Fontaine, proximate to the Echoes of the Deep Tides domain. As such, it's pretty easy to swing by while adventuring in the general area.

4. Northwest from Marcotte Station

It's situated northwest of the Teleport Waypoint at Marcottie Station. Probably one of such shrines that usually hang on atop cliffs. Yeah, the journey for this height involves a bit of traveling uphill.

5. Northeast of New Fontaine Research Institute

Northeast of the New Fontaine Research Institute, on an inclining path between two trees. Serene atmosphere contrasts with the challenges of reaching it.

6. Ruins of Central Laboratory

Underwater, south of the middle Teleport Waypoint in Central Laboratory Ruins. This one is near a Mini Meanies puzzle; diving skills are highly recommended for this submerged site.

7. Northeast of Loch Urania

This shrine is situated on a hill northeast of Loch Urania. From the southern Teleport Waypoint of Loch Urania, head uphill on the nearby hill to find the shrine; there's an Anemo fields puzzle along the way.

8. Lake South Weeping Willow

This is situated up a mountain, south of the Weeping Willow of the Lake, which makes it visible from the southeast Teleport Waypoint. A short climb presents one with this elevated location.

9. North of Hortus Euergetis

This shrine is located north of the Hortus Euergetis waypoint in the Sea of Bygone Eras. Swin up and north from the waypoint to find this shrine.

10. Collegium Phonascorum

In the Sea of Bygone Eras, this shrine also lies south a bit of Collegium Phonascorum. If arriving via the northeast Teleport Waypoint head southwest and - among the underwater geography- it should come relatively easily into sight.
