Two new cave features have been added in the update: Noise Caves and Aquifers.
Noise Caves are a new Cave generation system that greatly expands the variety of cave interiors in Minecraft. The names are food-themed: Cheese Caves, Spaghetti Caves, and Noodle Caves.
Cheese Caves, similar to Swiss Cheese, have large open areas. Spaghetti Caves have many long, winding tunnels. Noodle Caves are similar to Spaghetti Caves, but the tunnels and narrower and more numerous.
Aquifers are new water systems that appear in Noise Caves. Since their size is not determined by the world's sea level, anything from tiny ponds to large underground lakes can now be found in caves.
There are also two additional cave Biomes. Both Biomes, Dripstone Caves and Lush Caves contain unique materials that can only be found in those areas.
The new Dripstone and Pointed Dripstone Blocks can only be found in Dripstone Caves.
Items such as Azaleas, Flowering Azaleas, and Glowberries can only be found in Lush Caves.
The overall heights and depths for worlds have been increased, allowing you to create taller structures and explore further underground. The underground is now twice as deep compared to Update 1.17 and previous versions.
