So, you’re looking to make a leap into the Nether in Minecraft, huh? Let’s get right to it and show you how to build that gateway to adventure.
Step-by-Step Guide to Building Your Nether Portal
First off, you need some obsidian blocks. To get these, mix water with lava. You’ll need at least 10 obsidian blocks to create your portal frame.
Next, grab a flint and steel. This tool will light up your portal. Once you’ve got your obsidian and flint and steel, it’s building time! Arrange the obsidian in a rectangle: four blocks high and five blocks wide, with the corners optional. Light one of the inside edges with your flint and steel, and voilà, your portal to the Nether is ready!
