What is a road for boats? A canal! But we can’t call this a minecraft canal because it’s really not. No self-respecting canal would float in the sky and only contain water blocks every diagonal meter. And no self-respecting canal would consider the possibility of flinging those who travel along it into the stratosphere at a zillion miles per hour. Unlike minecarts, which can be difficult to control when you’re riding in one, using a boat to travel your water road means that you can fling yourself off the side of the road at any time. As long as you click out of the boat before it hits the ground you won’t even take fall damage. Now how you like those apples, huh?
This road can be placed along the ground or it can be elevated for a thrill a minute ride. This is not the safest way to travel in minecraft, not by a long shot, but it is probably one of the most fun ways to get around a map and all you need to build it are blocks of ice and dirt. So really dirt and a silk touch implement. Also: cheats.
This tutorial is made by reddit Minecrafter LonnieMac, to whom go the credit and the spoils.

One hundred and ninety million minecraft blocks have gone into the creation of Halion, a massive minecraft city comprised of almost two hundred individual buildings, all of which have custom interiors, naturally. Oh, and there’s a sweeping harbor at the bottom of a cliff face, complete with ten ships ready to be launched in a flotilla like no other. Being a complete city, it comes with six distinct and useful districts, including a place for heavy medieval industry and slums where the lower classes can rest their flea ridden heads.

A teaching parkour map, School of Parkour is a minecraft teaching parkour map that will teach you how to play advanced minecraft parkour maps. If you’ve ever fallen into lava for the fiftieth time and would like to know how to cling to vines, leap onto ladders and generally win at parkour, then this map makes an effort to teach you how to do that. Starting from the very basics of jumping with your spacebar (something that sounds totally simple, but is actually pretty difficult at times) moving on to double jumps, then corner jumps, then ladder parkour, then fence parkour and then more, more more parkour techniques so all those parkour maps will finally make sense.

If you want to start your own minecraft server, there are two ways to do it. One is to run one from your own home, the other is to hire or rent minecraft servers from one of the many companies offering minecraft server services. This article will teach you about how to set up your own minecraft server, or how to choose one from another company.
Hosting Your Own Minecraft Server
This can be achieved by downloading the Minecraft server file from the official Mojang site. Running your own minecraft server is fairly simple, but hosting it on your home computer can lead to a lot of problems, including security issues for your home PC and fairly slow connection speeds depending on your hardware and connection.
Here is a comprehensive tutorial on hosting your own minecraft server at home. This is a good place to start if you want to play with a few friends who live locally and who you trust.
If, on the other hand, you have ambitions of starting a famous minecraft server with a large number of players, you may want to look into renting minecraft servers.
