Creating Japanese Gardens in Minecraft! | Minecraft Survival Let’s Play 1.20 Ep.16

Hey hey welcome back to the let’s play look what we could do now my friends we could fly around our world a long last today though my friends we’re going to be taking things a little bit more chill today we’re going to be filling in not

Just this area here we’re gonna fit in this area as well now I should say originally my intention was to have a couple of buildings either side of the pathway here but then I realized you know what that would go ahead and block the view of this really nice looking

Pathway and wall around the edge here right so I’m thinking what we do instead is just make both of these areas here into a very very nice Nature Park looking area a bit of a Cherry Grove nature path so yeah we’re finally doing some more building well I say building

It’s more decorating more than building isn’t it but yeah if you guys enjoy these sorts of episodes and of course we want to continue seeing more do be sure to drop a like beneath the video and really appreciate it instead of subscribing of course if you’re new

Around here and you don’t want to miss out on my future content and if you do want to go on further with your support you can use code both and when ordering any of my Apex gaming PCs for five percent off one thing I’m realizing is yeah we’ve got ourselves a maintenance

Area for this ancient city project but all of the blocks from the surface are also down here so things like dirt and all of these bits and Bobs they’re all in my maintenance area down here I figured what we might need to do is make ourselves another maintenance area up at

The surface so we don’t have to keep coming down here to get things like dirt so in terms of the Cherry Grove Nature Park the first thing we’re going to do is we are going to add in some waterways some tiny little streams I figured that

Would be a nice way to get this place started which is why I’ve been digging out some little random holes I’m thinking we try to dig out a little bit of a path here for the water to go and then we just sort of go at it from there

I mean if there is enough space in this area even after we put the water in maybe we could squeeze in a couple of really really tiny little builds maybe builds that are big enough to just host a bed and a chest and that’s about it maybe we could have the waterways sort

Of split off in different directions as well all right so something like this I think would work very very nicely but here’s the thing my friends we’ve got a water source here right maybe these waterfalls can be the source of the water in the river here you know think

Logically it makes sense doesn’t it yeah I kind of like that all right so maybe we could have the water sort of split off over this way a little bit and then of course we’re going to need ourselves a bridge or two more and then yeah they’re gonna connect up with the

Moat there yeah so before adding all the water in we’re gonna go to the effort of actually replacing the ground underneath the little streams Rivers whatever have you we’re gonna put dirt down here and then of course we could bone meal these underwater parts and then we’d have

Ourselves some little bits of seagrass and bits of Bobs like that in here right at the end of the day animation brings a build and or an area to life doesn’t it in Minecraft ah I did not think this would be something that would happen ladies and gentlemen

We have ice forming I mean strictly speaking we are in a Grove biome and we are quite some blocks high up in the world here aren’t we ah I didn’t think this would be something I’d have to contend with I should have thought about this man

Oh what a doofus but you know what what part of me thinks that what we could do is actually kind of I don’t know adapt this maybe we add some snowing around here you know I mean this is supposed to be a snowy area at the end of the day it

Makes sense does it not I realize of course there’s a difference in the grass color around here and that’s because strictly speaking we have two biomes going on here we’ve got the meadow biome here and then where the grass goes a little bit Bluer it becomes a Grove

Biome now I don’t know if a meadow biome high up will still form ice so if it doesn’t then I guess we can adapt this area again maybe we have an area that has a bunch of snow and then a little bit of an area that doesn’t I mean why

Not so in order to let at the ice all form up I’m actually going to go ahead and start getting rid of all these torches which yes I know might be a costly mistake a creeper might spawn in and we might wind up having a bad time

But uh yeah I feel like it’ll be a good way to get the ice to just form up and then we’ve got a better idea as to what we’re dealing with here and hey on a more basic note look at this we’ve got ice forming up and then we’ve got these

Blue soulfire lanterns hey it goes pretty well together does it not I think it looks pretty good I’m running my phones I’m thinking next thing we need to do is start adding in some Pathways we’re also going to be needing some trap doors of course to sort of bridge over

The little streams that are running through here question is do we put them in the water rather like this or do we have it above the water I think in the water I mean the water is still strictly speaking flowing beneath it I guess yeah I kind of like that so

There we are we’ve got all the little stream bits all bridged over with the trap doors you know what before we go on with the pathways I kind of want to see if I could squeeze in a little build or two the first one I’m thinking of is

Kind of like a gazebo kind of deal I better say there’s a proper name for what I’m about to do here but basically it’s like a little circle structure with a tiny roof and then you’ve got like a little seat underneath it I’m sure you

Guys know what I mean I mean I’m sure once I’ve got a little bit of a structure here figured out you guys will know what I’m on about with this little gazebo thing does that pink rim around the bottom really work though I’m not entirely sure I feel like it

Makes it look a little bit too bulky yeah I don’t think I’m a fan I don’t think I’m a fan I’m sorry I’m gonna go ahead and do a little bit of adjusting here right quick I mean this is what we’ve got going on so far but I’d even

Suggest that this is too bulky I’d say the roof is too bulky it sticks out a little bit too much my goodness how hard is it to make a freaking gazebo in this game alrighty about as basic as basic can be my friends I decided to add in

Some trap doors up here and you know what they actually work an absolute treat this is what I was on about you know in most nature parks it normally find like a little bit of a circle kind of build that has like a little bit of a

Seating arrangement in there so you can sit in there with whatever lunch you may have whatever and just look upon the world around you you know that’s what I was aiming for so yeah I think that works pretty nice around here once it’s surrounded by Nature then yeah I think

This is gonna be looking rather marvelous so then we’ve got a little mini build on the right hand side there what about the left hand side I feel like a tiny tiny bill could maybe be squidged in here what exactly that build is going to be I have no idea I

Feel like it should be another sort of Nature Park featurette type thing you know what I’ve just had an ingenious idea as to what we could put on the left-hand side we can have this build actually have some function I’m thinking a season two project area project board

That is right in that all we do is we add in does it want to be here or do I want to sort of push it back a little bit I think I want to push it back a little bit actually uh maybe to about

Here one two three and then that can go right there and then this is simply going to be all fenced up right and then we can have ourselves a bunch of signs here with all of the little bits and Bobs that we want to be getting done in

The season 2 area of the world and then yeah at least we’ve got a nice excuse to come into our little Cherry Grove Nature Park area right needless to say it won’t just be this I’m thinking of adding like a proper roof to this thing maybe having

Some more of the Soul fire lanterns dangling off of it you know make it look proper all right so here we go we’ll have a lantern there there and there and then of course we’ll do the same on the opposite side here so there we have it

Looking pretty good if you ask me all we need to do now is start populating this with some signs with various little projects and bits and Bobs that I want to be getting done around here of course so yeah I think that works pretty nicely

As a little bit of a Nature Park feature it’s a functional one as well whereas this one is purely for aesthetic reasons which to be honest I think is still pretty alright so then just gotta finish off the little pathway areas here and then we can begin on my favorite part of

These sorts of projects by Milling the ground spreading around flower is restoring nature and just all in all making this place look fantastic the first part of operation restore nature here of course though will be putting down some Cherry Grove trees or Snappers all right turns out don’t have any uh

Cherry saplings how is that been the case I’ve got a sworn I’d millions of them at one point oh no way it’s snowing as well you oh fantastic this is all gonna start piling up my friends oh that is absolutely perfect right I want to keep that snow going so I’m going to

Purposely not sleep through this upcoming night so we can get the maximum amount of snow just sort of piling on the ground I guess I’m pretty sure I know the answer to this already but can you by any chance place these on snow blocks no you can’t hmm okay never mind

Do we really need pink Petals on the ground do we want pink petals or do we want snow blocks Ah that’s a hard one actually the snow would make sense considering of course the Frozen streams but pink paddles would really reinforce the fact that it’s a Cherry Grove Nature

Park eh oh man that’s a hard one you know what I’m realizing that these trees are actually quite tall and thus would probably obstruct the view of the nice circular pathway going up to the top Center area dinghy that we were talking about earlier so maybe we do some little

Mini custom cherry trees instead I don’t know is there a way of mitigating the height of these things when they grow could I maybe put like a bit of a stopper in the sky and make it so that they grow nice and sort of Stumpy I

Don’t know so here we are my friends we’ve got a Cherry Grove Tree in here for any of you guys interested it’s a nine block Gap in between the floor and the stopper up here in order for this tree to start growing the only thing is

Yeah it’s too tall just flat out it is Too Tall my friend I believe what we need to do is we need to make ourselves some little mini Cherry custom trees and then maybe just dot around some bushes on the floor as well because yeah like I

Say it obstructs the view of that pathway which is a goal we are trying so desperately to try and maintain we want to be able to see this ah you know what I don’t think the snow works here I mean this was always supposed to be like a

Crater with some nature in the middle wasn’t it I mean we’ve got the snow wall around the outside I kind of figured that we should keep at least some nature on the inside here so I’m gonna go to sleep I’m gonna get rid of that snow

We’re gonna go with the pink pedals roof so first up I’ve bone milled all of the ground on this left-hand side here what we’re going to do now is go through and get rid of all of the double Tall Grass because in my opinion it makes the area

Look a little bit unkept and a little bit messy all right so double Tall Grass has been eradicated what if I was to start placing in a bunch of these pink petals around I think that could be a nice idea so let’s go ahead and start

Doing exactly that maybe we just put the flowers in the spaces where the double tall grass was all right two stacks of pink petals has been spread around the place these allium flowers I don’t mind them being here actually because they quite closely resemble the colors of the

Pink petals the poppies on the other hand they’re not really Cherry grovish in my opinion so they’re gonna go bye-byes for now right okay I’m thinking Next Step trees custom trees now in order to do that we’re going to need ourselves a bunch of birch fences and a

Bunch of leaves although do we want to go with bird fences or do we want to go with something else only I’ve seen some people use never brick fences for these stalks of custom cherry trees I think that’s a pretty cool idea to be honest with you anyway for now let’s go get

Ourselves some leaves the only issue I’ve got with using netherbook fences is I don’t have any nor do I have the ability to make any just yet we could use Cherry fences that could be a cool way to go all right let’s just give it a bit of a

Go shall we my friends let’s give it a go and then we’ll be able to see you once and for all what actually winds up working here all right so we got ourselves a basic custom tree design here does it obstruct the view of the pathway though yeah it kind of does

Still doesn’t it are we really about to go even smaller with the custom trees I mean literally all we can do at this point is probably that I don’t know man this is a conundrum you know what I think I’m gonna have to just get over it my friends I think these

Little trees here are the way to go so I’m gonna go ahead and put my next one on I’m gonna say uh here yeah why not and then I’m thinking another one over here we’re gonna have them nicely spread out along the way here I’m thinking oh I

Don’t know one at the back here that could be a pretty cool idea one right there uh one right here yeah that works and then I’m gonna say one back over here as well so there we are my friends six mini Cherry custom trees of epicness

Right what’s the next step do we add a little bit of greenery down here I’m thinking maybe some sugar cane that could be a nice idea I mean we’ve got plenty of green on the floor anyway there’s no harm in adding more green right annoyingly I feel like we need

Even more pink petals two stacks was only enough to sparsely populate this area I’m thinking maybe three further stacks on this side alone might be enough although then again maybe all we need to do is start adding some of these here booshies on the floor and then we

Can sort of go from there see just how much pink there is and whether we need to add even more pink you want some more pink with that pink [Laughter] oh my word I’ll tell you something though this is looking rather marvelous I would say right we need to try to

Incorporate some sort of lighting in here I think the obvious idea would simply be to put some soul lanterns on top of some sticks that might work quite nicely do a little bit of that yeah I mean pink and blue in my opinion has always been two colors that work

Very very well together so I’m going to go ahead and put one here and I’m thinking well I’m back here I mean it probably isn’t going to be enough to completely eradicate mob spawns but I still think it looks rather nice yeah we just need ourselves some more lanterns

Which of course means ravaging through our iron Supply again are you genuinely trying to tell me I haven’t got any sugar cane here at all how is that possible what I thought we had a bit of a supply apparently not anyway my next phase was gonna be adding a little bit

Of Animation to the little waterways here simply by bone mealing and also putting in some kelp because yeah that’s another nice way of doing that although with that said I’ve just realized the actual waterways are pretty sparse because a lot of it’s frozen over so um yeah that’s a thing

Oh looks like we don’t have a great deal to decorate here at all in fact so actually when it comes down to it I don’t think sugar cane would be all that important I mean we can’t plant it around here because it would just get uprooted by the fact that this stuff

Keeps on getting frozen over right so yeah maybe no sugar cane is needed there’s one other element that I think could work quite well though and that’s bamboo I mean bamboo found in Japan no cherry trees found in Japan no I feel like that could be a pretty good

Idea if we were to get out some string if we have any I’m pretty sure we can mitigate the growth of this here bamboo although actually I think there’s another way of doing it as well I think if you were to grab some shears you might be able to mitigate the growth of

The bamboo so I think what I’m gonna do is plant this in little clusters let’s say this goes up oh I don’t know three then I think you shear the top ah it doesn’t work I thought you were able to use shears to mitigate the growth of bamboo ah jeez okay well that

Means we do indeed have to use string Ah that’s kind of annoying because I know that there’s going to be string there I mean to you guys you probably won’t be able to see the string all that much but just knowing that the string is there in

My head will be enough to set me off a little bit I think oh well I still think it’ll add a nice amount to the areas so if I was to just do that and there we are we’ve just mitigated the growth of this here bamboo and that means we can

Get on with adding some more ah right it’s snowing again ah right okay I’m starting to understand why some folks don’t like the whole snow accumulation thing especially when it comes to building it can get in the way a little bit granted you know what this snow could actually serve a unique

Purpose I pretty much want to fill up every single Square here with foliage where there’s a snow layer means that there’s a blank spot to put some foliage right I mean you gotta try and find a silver lining to all the situations right so there we are there’s that silver line ah

What okay I swear I did not hit that Lantern but I did really really though like really really really really that’s how we die is it unbelievable well you know what they say most accidents happen in the comfort of your own home and uh well this is no different

No I’ve just lost I’ll be level ah that is so annoying I hate that you only ever get a maximum of seven levels back I think that is complete horse dung I think what needs to happen now to really sort of tie off this area I think

We need to add more of a separator here we need to make this little rail sort of go all the way around make it look like the park is nicely contained I guess all this stuff my friends that we’ve been doing has only been for this here left

Hand side we need to replicate all of this literally all of it on the right hand side oh man is it gonna take some time but I’ll tell you what it’s been something that’s been needing to be done for a very very long time now so this is

Basically what I was talking about we’re just having this railing stretch all the way along here and it just makes the park feel a little bit more contained and well actually I think it finishes off the area very very nicely we’ve got plenty of entrances to get in here we’ve

Got the project board right there we’ve got another entrance over here that goes towards the back yeah I think this works an absolute treat to be honest with you nice one all right so with all of that done and dusted I don’t think there’s anything

Else that I want to be adding to this side here I think we’re just about done we’ve got a few little bits of bamboo sort of dotted around in little clumps got plenty of pink got plenty of greenery yeah I think this place is done

We now need to do it on this side as well alrighty step one we got ourselves the snow cleared out and I’ve also gone ahead and added in the railings first of all right what do we do on this side next I think we just bone milled the

Ground pretty much so let’s get that done and dusted then we ridden the double Tall Grass then we did our first pass of placing down a bunch of the pink petals and now my friends it’s custom tree time yeah all starting to come together that’s the trees done and

Dusted then I think we went at it with some of these little mini bushes is which we need more of by the way I just use the last of it on making those custom trees ah perfect as it becomes nighttime here I’ll be able to more

Easily see which parts of this area have been lit up because that’s the next step we’re putting down some posts with some soul lanterns so let’s begin shall we by not having that happen we need to rig this and then do a little bit of that

There we have it oh yeah we got Bakewell in here still I think we should tie you to the Gazebo thingy all right all that’s left to be done I think is to spread some bamboo around so let’s get it done my friend and ladies and gentlemen just like that the bamboo has

Been placed in I think we’ve got four or five Bunches of the stuff in here and well as a result this place is now finished our Japanese themed Cherry Grove Nature Park areas finally done oh man I’m so happy to say that my phones I really

Really am we’ve had this area be blank for the longest amount of time haven’t we and the fact that we finally got this thing done makes me feel pretty good about myself so then final thing to do we need to populate this project board oh yeah give me a minute my friends I’m

Gonna get this thing sorted out so then ladies and gentlemen here we are season two projects Japanese style Towers either side of the starter house that is what these Stone squares are we need to build them up and get them done moving on we’ve got finish clearing out ancient

City buildings and flat and ground that is something that is in progress add grass and foliage around central ancient cities structure I mean that one’s pretty self-explanatory isn’t it finish adding Redstone Farms to the ancient city Redstone basement Central rooms whatever you want to call them this is a

Massive one restore ancient city to its former glory of course if we’re going for the goal of clearing out the old ancient city then we’re gonna need to go ahead and add in some new buildings eventually aren’t we and then over in this big old section here tunnel rooms I

Have determined what’s going in every single one of the 14 rooms in our tunnel Nano animal farms and travel Hub mini Zoo for rare creatures and a potion Brewery and chart room library and a record slash disco room Stone slash Cobble generators mini Tree Farm we’ve got diamond mines with two entrances so

That’s going to take up two rooms armor trim Hub Pottery shirt Museum super smelters and a nano crop Farm room so yeah my friends now that we’ve got this all done and dusted now that we’ve got this project board up we can now go for the goal of trying to tick each little

Thing off so yeah I’m pretty excited for the future my friends I really really am why is that growing so tall I thought I put string above that I mean obviously I didn’t so um I don’t need to do that aren’t I but anyways my friends just a couple more

Things to do to wrap up the episode of course we’ve got ourselves a few donations in the last couple of episodes we’ve got toasted toad with five dollars thank you so much buddy casiblia s with the 1090 thank you so much buddy and Adam Styles once again coming in with

Another five pounds thank you so much for the donations folks I really truly do appreciate your support it goes a long long way in terms of YouTube member rewards I’ve got to go ahead and name a mob of my choice armor-piercing pillar jet as requested by voluntary exile

Referencing that one time I kept getting shot through a shield by an armor-piercing Pillager thingy so yeah what mob we’re going to assign that name it means to be seen though we’ll see my friends we’ll see I mean logically naming a Pillager that and trapping it

Somewhere where it can’t do harm to us that would make the most sense but uh that would also take quite a lot of time and probably quite a lot of damage anyways my friends to wrap up we have the comment of the day ale creates says

Python I kind of want to see you build a bartering Market City in the nether with buildings and all but piglins instead of villages apparently I can’t spell I put CEO build what a numpty yeah I really like that idea actually it’s something that has been sort of in

The back of my head pretty much since the nether update I mean why would you not want to make a bartering Market you get a lot of really really good resources from bartering you get things like leather and ender pearls crying obsidian regular obsidian loads of different things like honestly a

Ridiculous amount of useful things so yeah maybe that is something to be done later one in this season we’ve got a lot of stuff on our plate for now though my friends we’ve got all of the Season Two area projects going on we will eventually be getting back to the

Original parts of the world and going back to our original season one project as well there’s so many things still to come my friends and I really do hope that you’re excited for more episodes to come because I certainly am of course drop a like if you’ve enjoyed today’s

Episode hints tips suggestions feedback regarding what I’ve done here of course we’ll be welcome in the comments area down below but for now thanks for watching have a great rest of your day my friends thank you for all your support of course and I’ll see you guys in the next episode bye-bye

Thank you
