A Cherry Grove is the final line of defense between a Plains Village and a Pillager Outpost in this world. The village contains a Blacksmith, who would be happy to help you improve your gear if you get rid of the Pillagers threatening them. Players exploring underground will find a Trial Chamber hidden beneath the Cherry Grove. It’s much more dangerous than the Pillager Outpost, so only enter it if you’re truly prepared.

Important Locations and their Coordinates
Plains Village: -140, 148
Trial Chambers: -263, -31, 174
Pillager Outpost: -438, 215

The first village is built a small walk away from a set of Trail Ruins, while the second is next to a ruined Nether portal. Visiting and excavating both of these ruins is sure to give players plenty to do in a new Minecraft world. If they are not enough to fulfill your need for adventure, there are four Trial Chambers in the nearby area that are full of danger and rare loot.

Anyone looking for a little adventure can head southeast along the coast to find a Trial Chamber hidden underground.

Next to the village’s lake is a Lukewarm Ocean that is home to a kelp forest and plenty of small tropical fish. There is a fourth Savanna Village five hundred blocks to the west if three aren’t enough. The large Savanna biome is also home to a few Trial Chambers and ruined Nether portals.

In rarer circumstances, Plains Villages can spawn either within caverns or at the tops of mountains. The village in this seed is even more unique because it spawns in both at the same time! A cavern at the bottom of the mountain is home to the lowest house in the village. The rest of the town continues up the hill, with a few lucky homes residing at the top of it. In addition to the cave and the snowy mountain, players will have access to a large Stony Shores biome and a small Cherry Grove.

Plains Village: -159, -223
Ancient City: 224, -45, -155

Half of this Plains Village has fallen into a cavern, leaving them at risk of being overrun by monsters. Luckily, the cavern is relatively easy to light up since it’s open to the surface and does not go deep underground. You can use oak or spruce wood from the nearby forests to turn this cave into a personal mineshaft! The villages will spawn in Iron Golems, so you won’t have to worry about defending it yourself.

Important Locations and their Coordinates
Plains Village: 185, -349
Ancient City: 130, -42, -346

This village is on the side of a Meadow Mountain biome next to the coast. Closer to the coast is a ruined Nether portal, but what’s most important is the cave beneath the village. It starts as a Lush Cave and drops immediately into a Deep Dark biome with an Ancient City. The cave’s opening is very wide, so part of the Ancient City is visible from the surface.

Important Locations and their Coordinates
Plains Village: 203, 99
Ruined Nether portal: 276, 21
Lush Cave to Ancient City: 151, 30, 120

The tower on the left side of the temple is only accessible by building up to it from the side or by directly digging into it. With that in mind, this combination of structures is the perfect foundation for a survival base.

Important Locations and their Coordinates
Desert Village: 5, 88
Desert Temple: 74, 119

Additionally, the second village is home to a Dripstone Cave that will help you get your mining adventure started the right way.
