How To Find
Generates on flat, grassy terrain in the five village biomes — scan the horizon for lit paths, farms and bell towers, or listen for the villagers and the village bell.
Locator
No map leads to a village; a Cartographer villager only sells Ocean and Woodland explorer maps. Following roads and travelling along flat biomes is the fastest way.

Tips
Village style, houses and chest loot depend on the biome. Unlit villages spawn zombies at night; a village with no doors intact may generate as a Zombie Village.
