WesterosCraft

WesterosCraft is a long-running, truly exceptional Minecraft Mega Build that even comes with its own trailer, narrated by Isaac Hempstead-Wright, who plays Bran on the Game of Thrones TV show! The creators of WesterosCraft have been working for years on lovingly re-creating the world of George R.R. Martin's Game of Thrones, down to the most obscure detail, and the result is beyond fantastic. Though the work is still ongoing, you can visit many completed areas from the continent of Westeros, including the city of King's Landing, The Wall, Lannisport, Highgarden, and Pyke.

The build has its own website with information on the build, how to visit the server, and the future of the project. Check it out!


The Shire

 The Shire is a new offshoot of a long-running Middle-Earth Mega Build, and though the creators have only just finished the Shire, they intend to create all of Middle-Earth. While this is more or less completely insane, we have to say that if it looks as good and is as detailed as The Shire is, then it will totally be worth it.

So far, only the Shire, Bree, and some outlying areas have been finished, but the build is already incredibly promising, and has potential to be one of the best mega builds yet.


Center Of Valhalla

This build is a true work of art and dedication. Center of Valhalla is the brainchild and magnum opus of master builder That old kid (who also has some really excellent video tutorials and building advice).  Center of Valhalla is one of the best builds out there for seeing the sheer variety and potential of Minecraft to create truly magnificent works of digital architecture.

The build is fully available for you to explore and tinker around with if you want to see more of it up close. Check it out here!


Titan City

Titan City is another masterpiece of building and a dedication to one person's persistence. Consisting of almost five million blocks and representing two years of building, this mega build includes half a dozen skyscrapers, navigable buildings, and an incredible level of detail. It's also a cool modern mega build in a community that's somewhat oversaturated with medieval and renaissance builds.

If you want to check the build out for yourself, it's available for download here as well as on the Xbox 360.


Beetle Juice - A Minecraft Roller Coaster

Even though you can't download the map to experiment with or experience it for yourself, the Beetle Juice rollercoaster is a classic mega build that really pushed the limit of what can be done in Minecraft and what kind of content you can produce.

There have been some reproductions and attempts to recreate the map that you can find around the web, but the best experience is still in the original YouTube video, which has been synced to music for your riding pleasure.


Kingdoms Of Greymane

This is a really fabulous, detailed, intricate, and enormous build by master builder Jeracraft. He really goes above and beyond when it comes to creating his builds and it shows in this deeply detailed fantasy kingdom. Kingdoms of Greymane has a great mix of outdoor and underground areas that are perfect for exploration and building. This is a great map to use as a template for an adventure, as the baseline for your server, or just to use as inspiration for your own mega build. Check it out here!


Herobrine's Mansion

Herobrine's Mansion is such an iconic map and such a classic adventure that it's easy to forget how much of an accomplishment it is as a build. In addition to all of the exciting elements that make it a great adventure map, it's a massive and deeply detailed map made by one of the game's greatest creators, Hypixel.

Even though the game has grown and evolved an incredible amount since Herobrine's Mansion was released, it's still worth looking to for inspiration and remains a tremendous mega build.


Isle's of Dakros

This is a somewhat different sort of mega build, because it doesn't actually have any buildings, but that doesn't make it any less impressive. Isle's of Dakros is a project created by Lord Dakr as a base for other building projects -- it's a series of islands that were painstakingly hand-crafted to be more detailed than Minecraft's random generation. There are more complex trees, caves, fjords, natural geological features, and more, making this an awesome place to start your own mega build, adventure map, or just for a more interesting survival game.


Imperial City

Almost certainly one of the greatest mega builds of all time, the Imperial City is a build that attempts to capture the beauty and grandeur of Baroque and Renaissance architecture -- and succeeds exceptionally well at it. Lovingly detailed, phenomenally extensive, and painstakingly crafted, this is a mega build for the ages.

The creators have also released maps of some of the sub-builds, so if you are only interested in exploring or building off of one part of the Imperial City, they've got you covered. Check out all the awesome parts of the Imperial City here.


Eldaria Islands

 Eldaria Islands is a true work of art, a survival map that has undergone dozens of revisions and persevered for years. This is, rightfully so, a community favorite, and has been around for years. It includes unique biomes, custom trees, lovingly crafted custom locations, and just about anything anyone could want in a survival map. It's a great place to start a survival game, work on your own mega build, or just explore.

Check out all the awesome info, revisions, and evolution of the map here
