Minecraft is brimming with hidden treasures and intriguing locations, including perilous woodland mansions and decayed nether portals filled with gold and other valuable items. As players journey through the game, they often encounter rare finds. However, unexpected bugs and glitches can lead to some amusing and perplexing discoveries worth sharing with the broader gaming community.
One notable instance arose when a player known as u/RoughDraftRs took to the subreddit to showcase an image of a buried treasure along with its accompanying treasure map. Unfortunately, the mark indicating the treasure’s location was significantly misaligned, potentially guiding players to dig in entirely the wrong spot.
The post prompted user u/bingbong12494362847 to comment on the importance of using chunk coordinates for locating treasures. They suggested that players should simply navigate to the specific chunk indicated on the map and proceed to coordinates 9, x, 9 to successfully uncover the hidden chest.

The original poster subsequently shared that they had indeed utilized the suggested coordinates, which saved them considerable digging time. Such comments highlight the communal knowledge and strategies present among Minecraft players.
Interestingly, not every player was familiar with the buried treasure concept. User u/Tall_Bodybuilder_448 inquired about the item, leading to u/Morg1603‘s explanation that buried chests can indeed be located using treasure maps.
An additional observation was made by u/CreateModder_James, who proposed the possibility of encountering two treasure chests situated in separate chunks. This peculiar occurrence can happen from time to time due to quirks in world generation, with the original poster confirming that they had experienced this very scenario where two buried chests generated near the border of different chunks.
Bugs in Minecraft World Generation
Players frequently report encountering various bugs within Minecraft’s world generation processes. For instance, a recent post showcased an improbable sighting of two desert temples juxtaposed in the middle of an ocean. Other users have shared images indicating a desert temple located right alongside a jungle temple, further emphasizing the wonders and anomalies of the Minecraft universe.
While many of these glitches tend to be harmless and often elicit laughter, there are instances where they can disrupt gameplay significantly. A notable example involved a player discovering a ruined nether portal placed adjacent to an end portal, rendering the end portal non-functional and negating the hard work invested in locating it.
