Minecraft creations in Creative Mode always amaze us. The internet is full of magic created in this game, even when going to create a city and thinking, "I'm going to make a magnificent city this time!". However, somehow, you always end up with a mud house. Here are a few things to keep in mind when creating cities in Minecraft.
Step
Step 1. Start by selecting the desired biome to build the city
Usually people prefer Super Flat biomes and terrain, as the name suggests, very flat. However, some people prefer to build cities on top of other biomes (Forests, Hills, etc…) to give them a more natural look. Keep in mind that all terrain except super flat may require moderate to heavy terraforming.
Step 2. Level the ground
Because the house in any city must be built on a level of the same height, or in other words, the base of the house must be flat. Land leveling can be done on a large scale (for the whole city/block) or individually, on a per house scale. Apart from making buildings comfortable, land leveling also brings aesthetic value if done correctly.(Note: Land leveling can also cover natural springs which can hinder the construction process).
Step 3. Planning
Plan how the city will be built. Urban planning is a tiring but also fun job. Anything can be planned, from the location of the building, to the size of the road. The easiest way in planning is to build the road first, then lay the foundation of the house. This will give you an idea of what the city will look like when finished. What's more, you can add your own creativity (what about the subway system?). You are the expert!

Start building. Once you really know what building to build, make it a reality! After and during the build process, be sure to periodically save the world on a backup storage tool. You definitely don't want to lose it all of a sudden! (SkyDrive can also be an option, because the size of the Minecraft world save data is no more than a few kilobytes).

Step 4. Add details:
You definitely don't want to have a boring and monotonous city. Add some images and modifications to each building, and the Villagers (Villagers) that appear with the help of Spawn Eggs. Make the city come alive!
Step 5. When you're done, make sure to explore the city with the sword
The sword will not damage the structure of the building. The last thing you want is to accidentally destroy your own creation.
Tips
- Experienced players can also use redstone tools to make the city look more alive.
- Make sure to save the "saved world" data when you're done.
- If building a city just for display, make sure to focus on the aesthetic value of planning. Above all, the city must look good from the outside and from above. Cities can also be large or small as desired. However, if building for real users, the main focus is efficiency and the appearance of the city from ground level, from an inner city perspective. Can users go from house to market, mine, dock, etc. quickly without interruption? Is the location of the road easy to understand, and forms many routes to reach a location? Have all been properly lit to prevent mobs from appearing? Is there adequate housing available for all potential members? Is the market space enough to accommodate users who want to sell their wares? The key is efficiency. Keep efficiency in mind, then city dwellers will be delighted.
- An existing flat land, desert, or village will provide a place to build buildings more easily. Steep mountains and natural tunnels can provide suitable funnel points for building walls and doors for security. This will make it harder for mobs to attack your team, or damage your buildings.
- Create a garden to support team members who live in the city. Wheat grain can be harvested on a large scale in every biome except deserts. When available, watermelon is also a renewable and fast-growing food source.
- Make sure you have enough wood to make charcoal and torches. Replant any trees that have been cut down. If the seeds are placed on a grid with 6 perpendicular spaces between each tree, you can harvest a large amount of wood in a small geographic footprint.
- Start with the basic outline of the building, and add details later. For example, if you are building a hotel, only make the walls (don't fill them first) and place the blocks where you want them to have different heights. Then, build another building frame (with the help of your builder team) and finalize the building details later. One of the passions of doing the “skeleton method” is that you can play with the shape and dimensions of a building before finalizing it and adding little things.
