Which Realm Layout Should I Choose?

Best Realm Layout to Choose

Genshin - Realm Layouts

Choose the Layout You Like Best

You should just choose which Realm Layout you like the most! All Realm Layouts are essentially the same, even if some starting areas (like Floating Abode's) are smaller than others.

Pick a Realm Layout you think looks good and enjoy decorating it freely! Just be careful of the Load Limit...

Consider the Starting Mansions

One thing you might want to consider are the starting Mansions, though! You will start with either a Mondstadt-style Mansion or a Liyue-style Mansion depending on the Realm Layout you pick.

Genshin - Locked Exterior Area
There are a total of 5 areas inside a Realm Layout: the Inside area, and 4 Exterior Areas. If you've noticed bridges that lead to areas you can't reach, it's because you haven't unlocked that Exterior Area yet.
