You start in Snowy Plains with a village about 157 blocks east of spawn and a second about 248 blocks out, so you can pick your base. Both sit on mostly snowy plains and frozen river ground. An igloo lies about 371 blocks south-east, and Ice Spikes are about 410 blocks away. The Ancient City is the long trip, about 1142 blocks south-west of spawn.
