It has dungeons: The four divine beasts.
IMO It put a lot of the "Use a particular tool for this" puzzles into the shrines to scratch the puzzle solvers itch, (along with some of the Korok seeds.) but even those still gave leeway to not having to use those tools at all.
That is why I wrote specifically "long dungeons," yeah. Those are simple and short, all the same little floating skulls, maybe one treasure that is a mild head-scratcher to get at. The boss fights in there are barely distinct from each other. It feels cheap compared to previous releases.
They did put all those tool puzzles into shrines. But they are one-offs and simplified. It takes longer to find a shrine than to solve it. And too many of them are just "fight this same little spidery guy again."
The whole experience strikes me as Zelda for people who hated the majority of the content in previous games.
