Copy it into Minecraft 26.3 (Java).

An Ancient City sits only about 25 blocks south of where you spawn, so the deep dark is a short dig from the first minute. Spawn is a small Meadow patch, and within about 64 blocks you reach Taiga, Snowy Plains and Snowy Taiga. A village lies about 313 blocks south-east, a ruined portal about 229 blocks south-east, and a Woodland Mansion waits about 815 blocks south-west.
