Have you ever been lost in Minecraft? Do you just wish there was just something you could spot that would lead you to your home? You can make a Beacon in Minecraft, follow the simple steps below

Find a good spot. Don’t make the beacon on low land. Make it on a mountain so you can spot it from far away.

Place 3 to 6 blocks high (depending on your choice).

Make a small glass box but keep the top open.

Bring lava using a bucket and pour it in the hole.

Cover the hole with a glass block.

Note

• When making the glass box, hold shift so you can easily place the blocks without falling.
• If you don’t want lava, you can place a(many) torch(es).
• You can also make a tower, but the beacon is more efficient.
• The beacon will be best at night. As it will light up the area around it, allowing you to spot it fast.
• The higher the beacon, the more you can see it at night.
• Glass can be made by placing sand in a furnace.
• Be careful with lava! It can burn you on contact!
• Be reasonable! When choosing the height of the beacon, don’t make it touch the sky! No one can see it if it’s sky-high.
