Genshin Impact - How to Get to House of Hesperides

House of Hesperides is an area in Snezhnaya from Genshin Impact 7.0. Check out how to get to the House of Hesperides, the quest to explore it, puzzles and related info here!

How to Get to House of Hesperides

Begin at Fellfrost Peak's Statue of the Seven

Genshin Impact - Fellfrost Peak Map Preview

The easiest way to begin the climb up to reach the House of Hesperides is by reaching the Fellfrost Peak area. The area's Statue of the Seven is the best starting point to begin the trek up to the House of Hesperides.

Climb Up A Cliff

Genshin Impact - How to Get to House of Hesperides Banner - Climb nearby cliff

After reaching or teleporting to the Statue of the Seven, players can climb the nearby cliffside south of the Statue.

Nearby Cave Leads to World Quest

Genshin Impact - Hesperides of Love and Hate - Through the Gates of Ivory - For an Ice Mirror Fragment World Quest Location

Instead of climbing up the cliff nearby, players can instead get up to the elevated ground by going inside the cave. This is where the the World Quest For an Ice Mirror Fragment can be found, and chests of various rarites can be found within that quest area.

For an Ice Mirror Fragment Quest Guide

Climb the Mountain to the East

Once you scale the small cliffside, continue your path southward, until you reach the middle of a valley with a Teleport Waypoint up high up to the west. The path onward to the House is to the east.

You could climb up the mountain manually if you have enough maximum stamina, but the easier way to get up would be to use a Link Mechanism via Eye of Graeae and simply zipline yourself up to the next area. There is a pre-installed Link Mechanism you can connect to with one of your own.

Follow Ikhor to the House of Hesperides

Genshin Impact - How to Get to House of Hesperides Banner - Follow Ikhor

Once you reach the area, continue down the path until you come across a lanten that can keep you warm. This is where you get to meet Ikhor for the first time, and properly kickstarts the first sub-quest of Hesperides of Love and Hate: Through the Gates of Ivory.

Guardian of the Clock Tower

There is a special Glacial Warden that can be found in the Clock Tower on the third floor of the House of Hesperides, in the outdoor area south of the way that leads to the Chapel.

You have to defeat the Guardian first before you are able to properly do the next Entertainment: Lofty Clock Tower.

▲ Jump Back to the Top! ▲

Lofty Clock Tower

After the Glacial Warden guarding the Clock Tower is defeated, there should be a Link Mechanism that spawns where the enemy stood, as the doors to the tower cannot be opened from the outside. Use the Link Mechanism to get up the tower to begin.

How to Clear Lofty Clock Tower
1 Genshin Impact - House of Hesperides Entertainment - Lofty Clock Tower 1
Once you get to the top of the tower, use your Eye of Graeae to remove the Prime Ice blocking the hole. This should give you access to the a lower floor where there are two bells and a Cry Monument in the middle.
2
When you jump down, ring one of the bells to bring a Seelie down from the floor above. Afterwards, move to the second bell and ring that, which will let the Seelie pass through the Cryo Monument and unlock it. This breaks the seal on the window, and the Seelie will move outside.
3
Follow the Seelie along until you reach a lower floor. The puzzle is the same, but this time there are three bells and two Cryo Monuments.
Ring them in a triangle formation, to let the Seelie pass both Monuments to apply Cryo. You have to do this quickly, as the Monuments can re-lock if you do not get both applied with Cryo fast enough.
4
With both Cryo Monuments done, the barrier blocking the hole on the floor will be gone. Jump down through it to reach the lowest floor. There are three bells to rin, but only one Cryo Monument. You have to ring Bell #1 first to bring the Seelie to where it is. Then, quickly dash to the Bell #2 and ring when the Seelie is in the middle, so it is forced to cross through the Cryo Monument and break the seal.
5
Once the puzzle is finished, the wall will rotate and will show the final destination of the Seelie. Once it arrives there, the exit opens, the achievement For Whom It Tolls unlocks and secret doors are revealed on both the left and the right. The left will contain a Common Chest and the final Collectible Painting, while the right has a Common Chest and Exquisite Chest.
