The Ancient City in Minecraft, introduced in the 1.19 Wild Update, is located deep within the Deep Dark biome, typically around Y -51, beneath mountainous regions. It contains valuable loot such as Echo Shards, Disc Fragments, and Swift Sneak enchanted books. Players can find it by exploring biomes like Peaks, Snowy Slopes, or Windswept Hills, and should dig below Y level 0. They can also use the command “/locate structure minecraft:ancient_city” in Creative Mode or with cheats to find its coordinates. Key tips for locating the Ancient City include listening for Sculk sounds and looking for Sculk blocks. Players should prepare with supplies like food, a bed, and weapons for the expedition.
