You spawn in forest, but the real draw is the Mangrove Swamp only about 45 blocks away, a rare biome that takes up roughly 14 percent of the surrounding area. A nether fortress sits about 218 blocks from your spawn portal on the nether side. The nearest village is a long trek, about 1,200 blocks out.
