The Pale Garden is the draw here, with its nearest patch about 64 blocks from spawn, which is rare for a biome that usually sits far from the start. Spawn stands in Birch Forest on the floor of a valley, with ground at least 40 blocks higher in most directions, up to about 66 blocks above you. An Ancient City lies about 216 blocks north, and a Ruined Portal sits about 283 blocks south-east.
