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!

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.

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

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

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.

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.

|---|---|
| 1 | ![]() The first painting to fix is the biggest one right above the bed's headboard. Rotate it twice to let the mountain be in its proper position. |
| 2 | ![]() Next is the smaller painting right beside the first one. Like the first, rotate it twice to put it in its proper orientation. |
| 3 | ![]() The third painting is right across from where the bed is, hidden away behind and high above a display cabinet. Rotate it to the same position as the other two. |
| 4 | ![]() The final one is crooked diagonally, and will not rotate like the previous three paintings. Instead, place a Prime Ice Cube right under it on the left side to fix its position. |
| 5 | ![]() When the four paintings are fixed, head inside the secret room and claim your rewards. Keep this location in mind, as this will become crucial in another Entertainment found in the House of Hesperides. |
In the bedroom on the second floor, there are a number of paintings that seem to be in the wrong placement. Find all of the paintings and rotate them to the correct position!
After all of them have been fixed, a Common Chest will spawn, and a secret room will open within the bedroom. In it contains a Cryoculus, a collectible painting, a Remarkable Chest for The Love One Seeks and a Remarkable Chest!

The VIP Lounge can be found on the second floor of the House of Hesperides, to the left from the stairs of the main hall. Normally, you cannot get inside as the guard will require you to present a VIP Pass. Luckily, you can obtain it nearby.
| How to Unlock the VIP Lounge | |
|---|---|
| 1 | ![]() Just outside of the VIP Lounge, there is a pair of Snegovik by the sofa chair. Interact with them to overhear about the VIP Pass they dropped. |
| 2 | ![]() Go further down the hall, until you see a bunch of papers scattered on the floor. Interact with it to get the VIP Pass hidden there. |
| 3 | ![]() Go back to the VIP Pass guard. Present the VIP Pass to gain access to the room. |
Once unlocked, the VIP Lounge is permanently accessible. There are two Entertainments that can be done in that area!
| How to Solve Seating Arrangements | |
|---|---|
| 1 | ![]() Go inside the side room. There is a gap there from the secret room found in the Bedroom entertainment earlier. Block it off using the Prime Ice Cubes using the Eye of Graeae. |
| 2 | ![]() Head back to the main lounge, and begin talking to everyone about where to sit. Arrangements are as follows: ・Main Hall: Iskelina and Koshakova ・Side Room: Zlatlov and Khmelyova |
| 3 | ![]() Once all of them are set, talk to Abuzova and tell her things are good to go. The setting will prove to be correct once the message "It seems everyone is content" pops up afterwards. |
Talk to Abuzova about her problem with seating people in proper places within the VIP Lounge. The goal here is to seat everyone accordingly to their preferences: Zlatlov in the side room, Iskelina in the main hall, Koshakova is fine seating with anyone, but her sister Khmelyova does not want her seated with a man.
Arrange them correctly, and the Exquisite Chest besides Abuzova is yours for the taking.
The second one involves musical chairs with the Jack Frosts on the right side of the VIP Lounge. The goal here is to catch the two Jack Frosts wearing blue hats, and you only have 15 seconds to do this challenge. Pull it off successfully, and you will be rewarded with a Exquisite Chest

The misaligned statues are found immediately after the stairs on the second floor of the House of Hesperides. Players can interact wit the two statues facing each other, as they are apparently misaligned from where they're supposed to face.

Rotate the statues so that face away from each other instead. Once they are positioned correctly, a Precious Chest should spawn between them near the painter's canvas.

The location of the Mischievous Jack Frost is found on the third floor of the House of Hesperides, in the room past the stairs that leads into the Chapel. There is a Prime Ice construct that you can refund that a Jack Frost is starting at.
Once refunded, another Jack Frost will emerge from it and runs away. Catch it three times wit the Eye of Graeae to complete this Entertainment, where a Common Chest spawns after being caught the third time outside.

Head on over to the second floor and go past the VIP lounge to the northern section, until you reach a balcony that overlooks the main hall of the first floor. There is a Cryoculus you can obtain there as well.
Make sure to look up to see something that can be pulled with a Grappling Gun. Build one nearby, and it should pull down the ceiling to reveal a secret passageway upwards.
| Clear Ice Monuments in Tsar's White Birch | |
|---|---|
| 1 | ![]() The first Cryo monument is beside a doll among laboratory equipment. |
| 2 | ![]() The second monument should have two dolls to its left side, one of which looks hidden at a certain angle. |
| 3 | ![]() The third Cryo monument is to the right of the second, with some lanterns nearby on the table with three dolls. |
| 4 | ![]() The fourth and final Cryo monument is to the right of the first, with some candles nearby its location with four dolls. |
There are four Cryo Monuments that are trapped with the Tsar's White Birch; they are whole when you are afar, but try to get close and the branches grow and break it to pieces.
You have to snipe them from afar in a specific order in order based on the number of dolls near the monuments to complete this Entertainment and reveal a secret chamber. Use a Cryo Archer like Diona, Ganyu or Aloy to fire Charge Shots of Cryo at them. Doing this in correct order will open a door that leads to an Exquisite Chest.

Before opening the Exquisite Chest in the Suspicious Ceiling, the wall behind it will open and leave a gap that you can walk through. This will give access to the Secret Chamber in the Ceiling, where a Cryoculus, a Precious Chest, a trapped Seelie, and Radiant Spincrystal 197 are all found at the end of the room.
| Leading the Seelie to Their Monument | |
|---|---|
| 1 | ![]() Break the container trapping the Seelie, and it will begin to float up, as if trying to leave the area. Accompany it by breaking through the ceiling using a Launching Platform. |
| 2 | ![]() Follow the Seelie as it makes its way, until you have to climb a wall to get on top of one of the sub-buildings. From there, construct a Launching Pad, which should give you a jumping boost to get to the higher rooftop. |
| 3 | ![]() Scale up the roof until you reach its center peak, where a Precious Chest can be seen against the wall. The Seelie will lead you to it, however it moves up and three Winged Halberd-Knights defending the chest will spawn. Defeat them to unlock the Precious Chest. |
| 4 | ![]() Go up the rooftop and scale across it to follow the Seelie, then at the edge turn to the right as it goes down. There is a Remarkable Chest you can open nearby for a new furniture peace called Steady Companion Through Dreams. |
| 5 | ![]() Glide down with the Seelie, then climb up yet another rooftop to scale it. The Seelie's monument is behind the closest window opening. Once it reaches that location, a Precious Chest spawns right underneath a nearby Cryoculus. |

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.

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 | ![]() 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. |

As you approach the Statue of the Seven in Fellfrost Peak, you will automatically trigger the Hesperides of Love and Hate World Quest chain. This quest lets you explore the House of Hesperides and its various floors, including the outdoor park nearby.
