You spawn directly within a Cherry Grove at coordinates (24, -40), nestled on a high plateau. This beautiful biome offers immediate access to its distinctive pink wood and unique flora. Just a short walk away, about 11 blocks, you'll find a Mineshaft, providing an early opportunity for resource gathering.

Beyond the immediate spawn, this seed offers a convenient start for survival. A village is located about 76 blocks away at (0, 32), giving you an early source of trades and supplies. The surrounding landscape is a mix of plains and forests, providing varied terrain for exploration and building.

For those looking for more diverse structures, an Amethyst Geode is about 96 blocks away, and a Ruined Portal at about 170 blocks. While some other structures are further out, the initial proximity of a Mineshaft and village makes for a straightforward beginning to your adventure.

What you land in

You begin your journey standing at y=122 in a Cherry Grove, surrounded by its signature pink trees. The terrain around spawn is varied, with hills and valleys, and a small lake nearby. You'll find plenty of wood and open space for your first shelter, with a Mineshaft just steps away.
