Best Minecraft Ancient City Seeds For Bedrock & Java (October 2024)
Minecraft Ancient Cities are rare, elusive structures that contain many hidden structures, plenty of Sculk, and the terrifying Warden. After exploring tons of seeds and uncovering numerous Ancient Cities, I've come up with this list of the best Ancient City seeds in both Java and Bedrock editions.
Best Minecraft Java Ancient City Seeds
If you're a spelunker with a wild side, you'll enjoy uncovering every one of these Ancient Cities! Whichever you decide to enter, make sure you're prepared to face the Warden on his own turf.
Stalactite City
Seed: 4960101086291244277
Stalactites and Stalagmites cover the ceilings and floors of this Ancient City. You'll need to enter it carefully as falling onto the pointy Stalagmites could be the end of your spelunking adventure! This city can easily be reached by entering the Dripstone Cave next to the Savanna Village. It's a long path down, so bring plenty of food and materials for tools.

Badlands Dripstone Cities
Seed: -7685056573413861875
The Wooded Badlands biome in this seed is home to three Ancient Cities. Each City contains chunks of Dripstone biome and is placed over a lake of lava. The lava peeks through gaps in the cities' floors, lighting them up and making them a little more dangerous if you don't tread cautiously.

| Ancient City 1: -248, -44, -232 |
| Ancient City 2: -536, -44, 56 |

Lava Lake City
Seed: 5348402792525471021
A large lava lake lights this Ancient City from the ground up. The Ancient City has spawned naturally atop the lake, but sections of it are exposed all over the city. There are a lot of Sculk Sensors and Shriekers around, so tread carefully to avoid summoning the Warden.
| Key Locations and Coordinates |

| Ancient City: 1, -42, 71 |
Dangerous Icy Mountain
Seed: 5099560041334728232
This Ancient City has small gaps in its floor that reveal parts of the lava lake beneath it. To get to it, players will need to climb down a cave at the top of the mountain near a similar pool of lava. After climbing into the cave, visit the coordinates I included below to find a small tunnel. It has Sculk-covered walls and will drop you at the edge of the Ancient City.
| Key Locations and Coordinates |

Dripping in Sculk
Seed: 4821074274352632952
The best Ancient Cities combine the structure with another unique structure or biome to create something devastatingly beautiful. This Ancient City has merged with a Dripstone Cave, turning half of the city into a spiky obstacle course. The other half of the city stays true to its roots by being covered in Sculk.
| Key Locations and Coordinates |

| Ancient City: 118, -42, 145 |
Danger Mountain
Seed: 6529700376162575276
With two Ancient Cities and a Pillager Outpost, this mountain is not for the faint of heart! Each city is pretty standard, but that only makes them easier to explore. I recommend starting with the outpost at the top of the mountain and making your way down. If you need a little extra help to get started, a Taiga Village nearby can provide you with more resources.

Lush Darkness

A nearby Lush Cave brings life to this Ancient City. Players can easily use bone meal on the moss and glow berries to help spread the greenery to the rest of the city. There is a second Ancient City in the area as well, albeit it does not have any lush elements. A Trails Ruins structure is above ground near the first Ancient City for those looking for a surface adventure.

Glowberry City

This Ancient City is a bit of a trip from Spawn, but it's well worth the time taken. It's at the center of a large Lush Cave biome.
