Hey fellow travelers! 😊 I recently spent hours exploring every nook and cranny of Natlan in Genshin Impact, especially hunting down those elusive Shrine of Depths. As a dedicated player since the game launched, I've always been fascinated by these ancient structures sealed with mysterious energy. Unsealing them rewards you with luxurious chests, often filled with treasures like the Sunset-Blue Obsidian Fragment. And trust me, with Natlan being the Nation of War, the journey was thrilling but challenging! In the latest version 5.5, we finally have eight of these shrines available, with two more expected in future updates—perfect timing for 2025 adventures. Let me walk you through everything I learned, from precise locations to how to snag those precious keys. 🗺️

First off, what are Shrine of Depths? They're these cool, ancient buildings scattered across every region in Teyvat, each sealed by a magical barrier that only opens with a special key. Typically, each region has 10 shrines, and Natlan is no exception. Back in version 5.0, only four were available, but HoYoverse has been steadily adding more: two more in 5.2 and the latest four in 5.5. That brings us to eight now, so we're almost there! I remember the excitement when version 5.5 dropped in early 2025—it made exploring Atocpan, that volcanic island, a bit easier with the new shrines. Just a tip: use characters like Kazuha or Wanderer for gliding and climbing, because navigating Atocpan's eruptions can be tricky. 🌋

Now, let's dive into the locations of all eight current Shrine of Depths in Natlan. I've mapped them out based on my own expeditions, and I'll include screenshots to help you visualize. Remember, each one rewards you with a luxurious chest, so it's worth the effort!

  1. Near Huitztli Hill: Teleport to the southwestern Waypoint (not underground) and head south. It's super close to another shrine, making it a quick double grab. I found this one early in my journey—easy peasy!

  1. By Sulfurous Veins: Warp to the Waypoint right next to the "Sulfurous Veins" text and go south. This area has some funky terrain, but it's straightforward once you're there. 😄

  2. Near the Talent Material Domain: Use the domain for quick access, then climb northeast up the cliff. I had to use Zhongli's shield here to avoid fall damage—safety first!

  1. Close to People of the Springs: Head to the Statue of the Seven in that area and walk southwest, or use the southern Waypoint and go north across the water. Simple but scenic! 🌊

  2. Shoreline near Ochkanatlan: Warp to the Statue of the Seven in Ochkanatlan and head east, or indwell a Qucusaurus from the Flower-Feather Clan Waypoint and fly north. The fifth shrine is right by the water—perfect for a beachy vibe!

  1. Southwest of Ochkanatlan: Teleport to the western shore Waypoint and go southwest, past those pesky Tenebrous Mimiflora Ruin Guards. Dodge them with a fast character like Yelan! 💨

  2. Near Remnants of Tetenanco: Fast-travel to the southwest Waypoint of Remnants of Tetenanco and head west, climbing the hill. This one was a workout, but the view is amazing!

  1. West of Atocpan: From the northwest Waypoint in Atocpan, travel west towards the sea. Watch out for eruptions—I used a Pyro character for extra speed! 🔥

With all these shrines unlocked, you'll need keys to open them. Here's how I got mine in Natlan, based on the latest 2025 updates:

  • Statue of the Seven Rewards: Level it up for keys at specific tiers:

  • Level 2: One key

  • Level 4: Another key

  • Level 6: A third key—super reliable!

  • Tona's Flame's Restitution (Pyro Sigil Offering): This is Natlan's offering system. Level it up for more keys:

  • Level 8: First key

  • Level 18: Second key

  • Level 28: Third key—grind those Pyro Sigils! 💎

I found that focusing on world quests and exploration helped me gather keys faster. For example, completing the "Flame's Restitution" quests gave me a boost. And oh, the rewards are totally worth it: each shrine drops a luxurious chest with goodies like primogems, artifacts, and that shiny Sunset-Blue Obsidian Fragment. Plus, exploring Natlan's vibrant landscapes is a joy in itself—check out this stunning view I captured!

In summary, as of 2025, we have eight Shrine of Depths in Natlan, with two more coming soon. I can't wait for the next update to complete the set! If you're new to this, start with the Statue of the Seven upgrades—it's the easiest way. Happy exploring, and may your adventures be filled with epic loot! 🎉
