If you're having trouble obtaining quality seeds for the 1.20.2 version of Minecraft, you've come to the right place! I have compiled the 20 best seeds so, one of which will have the Minecraft experience you're looking for.
Top 20 Best 1.20.2 Seeds for Minecraft
Good Minecraft seeds are few and far between, and I consider finding proper seeds to be an art form. Spending countless hours scouring the internet searching for perfect, rare, and quality seeds with a bunch of content, rare biome combinations, or strange anomalies is hard, but I've done the work and developed a list of the top 20 1.20.2 seeds for you below.
20 - Neighboring Villages
Seed: 1212145820118193219
While these villages are only a short distance away, they are separated by the geography between them. A base can be made next to either, but it may be more profitable to connect them. Bedrock players will be able to find a Taiga Village as well as a few ruined portals, while Java players will have to travel toward the ocean for more structures.
| Key Java Locations | Key Bedrock Locations |
|---|---|
| Large Cold Ruin Cluster 1: 8, 408 | Ruined Portal: 39, 22 |
| Large Cold Ruin Cluster 2: -152, 408 | Taiga Village: 54, 152 |
| Taiga Village 1: 48, -400 | Plains Village 1: -32, -330 |
| Taiga Village 2: -240, -352 | Plains Village 2 with Ruined Portal: -277, -348 |
19 - Forested Badlands
Seed: 2478166049444056686
These Wooded Badlands have the beautiful visuals of regular Badlands combined with the functionality of a Forest. As a bonus, there is a Desert Village filled with goodies right next to them. When you've had your fun wandering the Desert and have gathered enough supplies, you can head beneath the surface to take on an Ancient City.

| Ancient City: 152, -45, 120 | Ancient City: -168, -45, -248 |
18 - Hidden Cherry Village
Seed: 3634221548333338194
This Plains Village is surrounded by Cherry Grove hills, preventing anyone on the outside from seeing it. You can turn it into a bustling town, loot its valuables, or spend time there to train up and get ready to take on the world. Java players will be able to find a second village outside of the hills, and players of both versions will find an Ancient City a few hundred blocks away.
| Key Java Locations | Key Bedrock Locations |

| Hidden Cherry Village: -256, 256 | Hidden Cherry Village: -281, 238 |

17 - Mushroom Sea
Seed: -4137122126623625695
Finding Mushroom Islands has never been easier than with this seed! Heading east from Spawn leads you into a giant Cold Ocean filled with Cold Ruins, Ocean Monuments, and, of course, Mushroom Islands. There are four large ones as well as several smaller islands to explore. If you need time to prepare before facing the seas, there are villages, igloos, and ruins on land to help you gear up.

| Shipwreck: -568, 776 | Shipwreck: 248, 56 |
16 - Multi-City Badlands
Seed: -8160840050472299232
With so many Ancient Cities and Badlands as far as the eye can see, this seed is definitely a must-play. Both Java and Bedrock players will find a series of three Ancient Cities next to each other. However, only Java players will get two Ancient Cities that connect directly. With two times the treasure available in one place, the danger is well worth the risk.
| Key Java Locations | Key Bedrock Locations |

| Ancient City: 8, -43, 632 | Ancient City: -360, -43, -344 |

15 - Snowy Meadow Village
Seed: 117543321078366150
You spawn on the side of a small mountain covered in snow. Crossing it will lead you to a bustling Plains Village. Half of the village remains covered in snow while the other half basks in the sun. It's the perfect place to enjoy a steady, relaxing life. For some extra excitement, there are a few caves nearby to explore, from a Dripstone Cave ravine to a giant underwater cavern.

14 - Swampy Desert
Seed: -385335370564828793
If you love gorgeous geography, you'll adore the combination of Windswept Savannah hills, Desert terrain, and the split Mangrove Swamp in this seed. A giant cave can be found to the north filled with ores to get your journey started. Players of either version of Minecraft will be able to find a nearby Desert Temple, Desert Village, and a Pillager Outpost.

12 - Beautiful Mountain Dome
Seed: 1063292310985219505
This seed spawns you right on the edge of a giant crater surrounded by snow-capped mountains. Right at the bottom, a beautiful Cherry Grove lies on one side while a beautiful green pasture covers the other side. Embedded into the crater edge lies a small igloo, a ruined portal with a gateway to another dimension, and a village that you can help expand. Adventures lie at every corner, and I think this seed has plenty of content to offer, bringing you hours of fun.

Enjoy this idyllic landscape alone or with friends, exploring the wilderness outside while taking the opportunity to return to your cozy base for a minute.

10 - Overgrown Village
Seed: -8760842477994929977
This strange seed puts you in the middle of a giant Mangrove Swamp close to a Savannah Village completely overgrown with mangrove flora. It's incredible how villagers still go about their daily chores without a worry in the world despite the sprawling Amazonian forest that looks like it's about to swallow them at any second.

9 - Epic Badlands Spawn
Seed: 332003967
This seed spawns you right on the edge of a vast Badlands biome. If you're a fan of building in warmer climates, head on over to the coordinates I provided below to see an excellent plateau half-surrounded by a mountain chain. There are multiple locations ideal for various kinds of activities. Still, my next favorite is a small blue lake contrasted by the surrounding terracotta mountain chain at the second set of coordinates. Be sure to pay them all a visit.

8 - Quadruple-Structure Combination
Seed: 5092820108002433452
This seed spawns four rare structures right next to each other right next to your spawn location. You will have a Desert Village populated with villager NPCs and a ruined portal right next to it. On the other side, you will see Trail Ruins, which are ripe for exploration. At the very center of it all lies a Jungle Temple. Possibilities are endless here, so it definitely earns my recommendation.

6 - Double Shipwreck Village
Seed: 5905590242893
This seed will offer you plenty of content if you don't feel like building bases yourself. After traveling across the ocean, you will discover a Plains Village with not one but two shipwrecks in its port. Finding one wreck near a populated area is rare enough, but having two makes this seed really special indeed. You can upgrade the village, create a merchant port, and perhaps build a customs office somewhere nearby. In practically no time at all, I was handling all shipping distribution centers with my friends, who then proceeded to kick me out of the server for setting the import taxes too high.
