The End
Biomes
A central island, a long void gap, then thousands of outer islands. Just four biomes — but each plays a distinct role.

The void gap
Between the central End and the outer islands lies ~1,000 blocks of pure void. Use the return gateway after killing the dragon — throw an ender pearl through it to teleport across instantly.
