How Do I Get to the Secret Garden in Shadow of the Colossus?

In "Shadow of the Colossus," released for the PlayStation 2 in 2005, you must track down and slay 16 enormous stone colossi to bring your lost lover back to life. In this ancient land exists a secret garden, normally only accessible to those who beat all four of the game's different modes. The secret garden contains a fruit-bearing tree, but if you eat its fruit, your stamina meter decreases. To get into the secret garden without beating all of the game modes, you only need to jump from your horse's back to a hanging patch of ivy.

Instructions

- 1
  Defeat at least seven colossi. Each colossus you kill causes your stamina meter to increase. You need plenty of stamina to get to the secret garden.
- 2
  Ride your horse to the main temple where you start the game. Ride along the northeast wall and then jump off the horse toward the patch of ivy on the wall.
- 3
  Climb up the wall using the diagonal jump to save your stamina as much as possible. To do a diagonal jump, jump and hold the PlayStation 2 controller's left thumb stick at an angle. When you swing your arm upward, release all of the buttons.
- 4
  Follow the wall around to the right. Jump across the gap to the other side of the wall. Climb until you see a pillar across from you.
- 5
  Line yourself up with the pillar and then jump over to it. Keep climbing up and to the left until you get to a ledge.
- 6
  Get off the wall and follow the ledge to some stairs. After you pass the stairs, you enter the secret garden.
