• Version: Java
• Spawn: 8, -3
• Biomes: Deep Dark, Savanna

An Ancient City will always be one of the most resource-filled structures in Minecraft. This seed takes it a step further by hanging a mineshaft above one of its Ancient Cities, giving you access to even more riches. Carry a bucket of water while exploring the mineshaft to maneuver between it and the city. Additionally, you can use the city’s lake of lava to gather obsidian for a Nether portal.

• Spawn: 0, 0
• Biomes: Cherry Grove, Plains, Stony Shore

This world begins a few blocks north of a large Cherry Grove biome. Entering the biome gives you easy access to bees and passive mobs while the areas around it contain three Plains Villages. If you enter the Blacksmith’s home in the first village, you’ll find an iron pickaxe and five iron ingots. These resources will help you explore the ruined Nether portal in the third village, as you’ll need the pickaxe to destroy a few Crying Obsidian blocks so they can be replaced with the obsidian in the portal’s chest.

• Biomes: Coral Reef, Mushroom Island, Warm Ocean

Spawn directly onto a tiny Desert island in this Minecraft seed. The Coral Reef around it adds color and life to the seed, making it feel less lonely than other survival island seeds. Players who want to visit the mainland will find it a 500-block swim to the southeast. However, players who want to bask in a vibrant ocean will discover a giant Mushroom Island only a short swim away from the starting island. You’ll also find a shipwreck and a cluster of Warm Ocean Ruins between these two islands.

Wade through the Swamp biome at Spawn to find this tall Pillager Outpost on top of a Windswept Gravelly Hills biome. Attacking it from behind is the easiest way to get in and out of the tower swiftly. Leave the tower behind and walk east towards Spawn to see a ruined Nether portal. It’s only missing a few obsidian blocks, two of which are found in its chest alongside a golden helmet and a flint-and-steel.

Woodland Mansion at Spawn

• Seed: -4713037672576839928
• Version: Java
• Spawn: 7, 3
• Biomes: Birch Forest, Dark Forest

Seeds like this are the best way to explore Minecraft’s rare Woodland Mansion structure. This Mansion is just 70 blocks from Spawn, which is only about a one or two-minute walk in-game. It is home to a single hidden room, which you’ll find behind another room on the third floor. Head south after raiding the Mansion to find a Plains Village with a ruined Nether portal and an Ancient City. This set of structures is perfect for survival players because they’ll provide you with rare resources to craft strong weapons and armor right after spawning into the world.

• Version: Bedrock
• Spawn: 326, 38
• Biomes: Bamboo Jungle, Stony Shore, Warm Ocean

Sniffers are one of the most difficult mobs to obtain in Minecraft because their eggs can only be found by brushing Suspicious Sand in Warm Ocean Ruins. To make matters more difficult, there is only a 1 in 15 chance for Suspicious Sand to contain these eggs. Players determined to fight the odds and get their own Sniffer will enjoy this seed. There are three clusters of Warm Ocean Ruins between Spawn and a Jungle island to the southwest. Additionally, there are plenty of single Warm Ocean Ruins near a Mushroom Island to the north. With so many chances, you’re sure to get at least one Sniffer to keep as a pet.

• Version: Java
• Spawn: -127, 32
• Biomes: Snowy Taiga, Taiga

Archaeology was a large part of the Trails and Tails update, so you’ll need at least one Trail Ruins seed in your arsenal. In this world, you’ll spawn into a mix of Taiga and Snowy Taiga biomes with two Trail Ruins structures. The first is tall and rises from a Snowy Taiga hill while the second is closer to the ground in a normal Taiga. You’ll also come across an igloo with a basement near the first set of ruins and a Taiga Village.

• Biomes: Desert, Sparse Jungle

A Desert Temple collided with a Desert Village while this world was generated. It has caused one of the village’s homes to merge with the temple on the outside, although you won’t see it from inside. However, you will see the villagers who used to live inside the home fleeing from the temple when you arrive in the village. You’ll need to be extra careful when heading down to the temple’s treasure room so you don’t accidentally blow up the town or its inhabitants.

• Biomes: Lukewarm Ocean, Ocean

Warm Ocean Ruins are the only place in Minecraft where you can find Sniffer Eggs. To give you the best chance to find them, this seed starts next to a Warm Ocean with multiple clusters of Warm Ocean Ruins. The Warm Ocean continues to the west, so you’ll have even more opportunities to excavate similar ruins if you don’t find Eggs in the first three. You’ll also have access to a few Cold Ocean Ruins as you travel north in the ocean.

Key Locations and their Coordinates
Small Warm Ocean Ruin: -187, 61

• Version: Bedrock
• Spawn: 71, 9
• Biomes: Frozen Ocean, Snowy Plains, Stony Shores

A Snowy Village has decided to make their home on the ice of a Frozen Ocean in this world. Next to the village, you’ll find a partially exposed dark oak shipwreck. While the lower half of the ship contains two treasures chests, the compartments they’re in will be flooded. Dive carefully and make sure to place a torch on the ice above the ship to prevent the water from refreezing while you’re underwater.

• Biomes: Bamboo Jungle, Jungle, Wooded Badlands

This set of Trail Ruins clings to the side of a steep cliff, making it easily visible to anyone looking in the canyon. A small flooded cave cuts through the land beneath it. While this makes the ruins seem small, they actually continue beneath the cave’s floor. You’ll be able to excavate them easily if you drain the water from the cave.

Jungle Temple: 164, 133

Three Plains Villages at Spawn

• Seed: 6454089

• Spawn: -22, 95
• Biomes: Plains

Although the area at Spawn may look like one giant city, in reality, it’s actually three villages standing extremely close to each other. There are about 40 buildings in total, which could be easily multiplied and turned into a massive settlement. The first village will have a Blacksmith while the other two are mainly useful for farms and basic resources.

• Spawn: 0, 0
• Biomes: Forest, Plains, Taiga

Visiting this Taiga is an easy way to explore a lot of what Minecraft 1.20 has to offer! The village and Pillager Outpost will help you gather resources and experience, the ruined portal can be rebuilt to visit the Nether, and the Trail Ruins will help you learn how to excavate. This area isn’t far from the ocean, so you’ll have relatively easy access to Cold Ocean Ruins and a Mushroom Island as well.

• Biomes: Coral Reef, Desert, Jungle

This lush survival island is home to both a Jungle and a Desert. The Jungle side of the island has a chest of buried treasure while the Desert side has a village and a Pillager Outpost. What is really unique is the way that the Pillager Outpost is on a tiny adjacent island rather than being connected directly to the main isle. It demonstrates how unusually Minecraft can distribute structures, creating the opportunity for exciting gameplay scenarios.

Woodland Mansions are home to plenty of treasures, although you’ll need to fight your way through a lot of mobs to get them.

A lake has formed in the crater at the center of this Cherry Grove. The Plains Village in the same area has partially fallen into the lake, creating a unique town.

• Seed: 6960347577965979123
• Version: Java
• Spawn: 26, -22
• Biomes: Ocean, Forest

Spawning directly onto a Woodland Mansion is already a rare treat most players won’t discover naturally. This seed takes it up another notch by having the starting Mansion generate on a tiny Dark Forest island in the middle of the ocean. A few pieces of the island are below the Mansion, but the majority of it towers over a corner of the Mansion. You can take the opportunity to explore the Mansion immediately or climb the tall portion of the island to gather wood. Whichever you decide, you’ll have the chance to play Minecraft in an entirely different way than you usually would.
