Landmarks
There are several villages of different styles or themes. Feel free to help expand them, in keeping with taste and maintaining perimiter security.
See interesting houses including the pretty pagoda and treehouse (a house made of trees) south of Squaresville. Also Korvar's gigantic pagoda east of Spawntown cannot be missed (whether or not you want to). It's also currently home to the Dragon Egg.
At the Rainbow Castle see incredible mega builds of dinosaur (Rainbow Rex), spaceship and hexa-helix. Also a scale model of the Rainbow Castle and a music station playing Prelude 1 in C from Bach's Well-Tempered Klavier. Don't forget to check out the nearby Rainbow Palace and Circus Maximus chariot raceway, the upper and lower Rainbow Tunnels, a smoothly-varying Rainbow Beacon Array, the Library, and the deep hole in the desert where you can safely fall from build height to full 1.18 depths. There's much below as well, including a swimming pool, slime farm, and large tunnel network.
Between Spawntown and Yondinium to their west, and the Rainbow complex to their east, you'll find the six Cooling Towers, in decreasing height order as you go north, a tribute to the now-demolished Didcot A Power Station. Number 1, located above the End Portal and Stronghold, goes all the way to max build height (y=255), Number 2 is built to actual size (114 m high), and some glowing green goo is being dumped in Number 3. They're easily visible from the Pinkway (between MAMP's base and the Rainbow Castle) and also from the Savannah Plateau Pedestrian Expressway if you have your render distance set far enough.
The nether hub carpets form a 1:8 carpet tile map of the matching overworld with suitable flora for flavour.
After the first End Dragon was slain, the sword that killed the End Dragon and the End Dragon's head were wall-mounted in MAMP's and MrTrousers' bases, respectively.
The ocean monument that houses the guardian farm can be visited from the surface. The portal needed is near to the farm portal. It's now been drained, so is much safer to visit.
A mysterious red and white striped pylon is high above JMcK's mountain base. Excellent for telling elytra flyers they're nearly home.
The Great Nether Railway is the largest build on the realm and takes 8 mins+ in the nether (an hour's overworld minecart journey). As well as being huge it's attractive in its own right, and goes to our first Woodland Mansion at 18350, -14757 overworld.
If you want to see a coral wonderland, head for Brightyon, situated near warm oceans (at 4914, 1337 overworld) - take the nether rail branch line from between the Rainbow Castle and Deadsville portals. There is a research station, with three large glass laboratories linked by an underwater glass tunnel, and visiting Professor Bob McCrachan.
Gawp in wonder like a small child at Korvar's Hole. Follow the Naughty Path in white from The Fingers just south of Deadsville, thread your way to the portal round the back of the Deadsville portal, or follow the grey path on the nether roof.
Go sightseeing in the new nether biomes at Clactyon-on-Lava. Wear a gold helmet to avoid piglin rage. Take the ice boatway or railway on the nether roof from near the Rainbow Castle, changing direction at Clapyon Junction where there's a piglin bartering station.
Follow a trail of amazing one-chunk tower builds along z=1024. The easternmost (at time of writing) is in the sea due south of Squaresville, and the chain extends far to the west, including Beetown along the route, which has its own portal (SW exit from the nether hub, follow the bee stripe floor pattern to the south) and many bees.
The Mossque, the Cardingyon Sheds and Flying Bum, and the Brickworks (a tribute to the now-demolished Stewartby Brickworks) are all next to each other and linked by road. The Atomiyon is nearby too, housing a nascent museum of pottery sherds and armour trims/smithing templates. Take the pink portal in the nether to the Flushing Mob Farm, from where you can see the Mossque and Sheds, or take the red portal to the Brickworks.
If you follow the road north from the Brickworks HQ past the Cardingyon Sheds, you'll pass a swampy area to your left where the Enchantment Hall lies (clerics selling the top level of every enchanted book); and to your right you'll pass a replica of the old University of York Chemistry Department Water Tower standing on its own island, and also a model of the Gasometer next to the Oval, complete with 'GO ENGLAND' banner from the 2005 Ashes.
