Around Spawn
Spawn sits at 0, 0 inside a dripstone caves biome, so you start underground among pointed dripstone and copper rather than on open grass. The deep dark is right here too, which is why an ancient city registers at 0 blocks from spawn. Head up to the surface and you reach forest, swamp, plains, and beach quickly, with taiga and flower forest a little further out. Bring torches and a bed before you do anything else, because breaking blocks near the city risks waking a warden. Mark your spawn point clearly so you can find your way back down.
Structure Walkthrough
The nearest ancient city is at spawn itself, 0 blocks away. A second ancient city sits about 195 blocks out. At roughly 305 blocks you find a ruined portal for a fast route to the Nether. A third ancient city is about 385 blocks away, and a desert pyramid follows at around 415. Two more ancient cities wait at about 445 and 470 blocks. A trial chamber sits near 510 blocks, with a village at the same distance. A sixth ancient city is about 570 blocks out, a second village near 575, and a second desert pyramid around 580.
Playstyle Tips
Do not mine straight into the first city. Set up a small surface base in the nearby forest or plains, then approach the deep dark with wool blocks to muffle your steps and enough food to escape. Clear the closer cities one at a time so you can retreat to the same base. Use the ruined portal at about 305 blocks to reach the Nether once you have some iron. Save the trial chamber near 510 blocks for after you have armor, since its spawners hit hard early on.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is there really an ancient city at spawn?
Yes. The deep dark reaches spawn, so an ancient city is recorded 0 blocks from 0, 0. Approach it carefully, because sculk sensors and shriekers can summon a warden if you move loudly.
How many ancient cities are close to spawn?
Six ancient cities sit within about 570 blocks of spawn, at roughly 0, 195, 385, 445, 470, and 570 blocks. That is an unusually tight cluster for warden fights and sculk farming.
Where can I find villagers?
Two villages are recorded, one near 510 blocks and another around 575 blocks from spawn. Both are within a short walk once you have a surface base set up.
What is the fastest way to the Nether?
A ruined portal sits about 305 blocks from spawn. Repair its missing obsidian with a water and lava bucket, or a diamond pickaxe, and you can light it directly.
