It's been a long time, but I've played a bit more. I'm between dungeon 2 and 3 right now. Currently collecting the Gold Leaves.
The puzzle in this photo always holds a place in my mind as being the most unintuitive in any Zelda game. You're supposed to throw a jar at the door to unlock it. They made it more clear in the Switch remake by actually putting a picture of a jar on the door, which as much as that removes the problem solving element, it honestly isn't a bad change given how weird this puzzle was.
Overall I'm enjoying Link's Awakening, but the Switch version has spoiled me. I doubt I'll ever play the GBC version again after this, unless someday I play through each Zelda in release order again.

I believe one of the owls in a dungeon earlier tells you to throw a pot at a door to open it. The assumption is you remember to do that to enter this dungeon. OR, there's a dungeon that literally locks you in a room and you have to open it with bombs or a pot. Something like that. I still agree it's a garbage puzzle. Link's awakening was one that I couldn't beat as a kid by myself, I had to use a guide. I think it's about the only one because some parts like that were just absolutely confusing for kid me.
Face Shrine is almost cancerous too.
