Description
The ultimate reference for any Zelda fan,
I present to you… Hyrule!

I have combined the maps of Ocarina of Time, Skyward Sword and the island locations from Wind Waker to create a composite which involves no turning or twisting; North is North here, my friends.

By lining up the Sealed Temple to the Temple of Time (Hyrule Historia – a great reference to all things Zelda being translated by hard-working fans as we speak – hints at the sage, Rauru, reconstructing the former to suit the latter as a portal to the Sacred Realm.)

Another quote from Hyrule Historia states that Hylia, the Goddess, built her Temple (later known as Sealed Temple) in "the heart of the land", which better suits the location of Hyrule Castle and Castle Town and the fact that the Temple was reconstructed to fashion the Temple of Time.

As you can see here, wet and green forests lay to the east/southeast; arid hills and desert sands lay to the west/southwest; a fiery mountain smokes to the north.

"Fiery" Eldin Province encompasses Death Mountain, Kakariko Village and Hyrule Castle (which, by the way, is where one finds Din's Fire in OoT).

"Lush" Faron Province encompasses Kokiri Forest, Lost Woods and the Zora county – one finds Farore's Wind within a fairy spring in Zora's Fountain.

"Desiccated" Lanayru Province – once a green plain and a vast inland sea – encompasses Gerudo Valley & Fortress, Haunted Wasteland and Desert Colossus; one finds Nayru's Love in a fairy spring deep within the desert.

EDIT 2.1: Color scheme changed, with the addition of a 45 degree tilted Twilight Princess world map.

EDIT 2.2: Color scheme changed again, Twilight princess overworld now North-oriented; some locations from Ocarina of Time adjusted to compensate.
