2. Laying the Foundation: From Base to Structure
· Use a total of 18 blocks to create the castle's foundation. Place a 2x15 rectangle 5 blocks from the left and 2 blocks from the front.
· Mark the central 5 blocks with a different color and extend them upwards, adding 3 blocks below to indicate the positions of the walls and towers.
· Extend the left wall upwards by 6 blocks, and create a 4x6 rectangle on top using brown floor blocks. Then, add a 3x4 rectangle and a 3x3 rectangle.
· Use gray floor blocks to create specific shapes. Once the left foundation is complete, place a 4x2 rectangle in the center and a 7x11 rectangle for the palace.
· In the right section, first place a 7x4 rectangle, and on top of it, add a 3x3 square and a 2x2 rectangle.
· Extend the right wall 3 blocks backward and 1 block to the right, then stack it 3 blocks high to form a 4x4 square. Finally, connect this section using fences.
· The completed foundation has a specific overall shape.

3. 🏗️ Building the Castle's Skeleton: Adjusting Palace, Tower, and Wall Heights
· Extend all four sides of the palace section to the maximum height of 8 blocks.
· Extend the adjacent tower upwards by 6 blocks, and the right section upwards by 7 blocks.
· Raise the rear tower to its maximum height, and make the small balconies 4 blocks high.
· Apply castle material to the palace and use brick material on the sides to highlight the central main tower.
· Extend the adjacent walls upwards by 4 blocks, and the tower section upwards by 6 blocks. Ensure all areas with brown flooring at the bottom are covered.
· Add walls that are 4 blocks long and 3 blocks high, and extend the front wall upwards by 4 blocks.
· Place a low wall on top of the rear wall and reinforce the inner wall. Make the front 4 blocks high, and the gate area 5 blocks high.
· Raise the center of the gate by one block and place two low walls on either side. Make the very front 3 blocks high.
· Complete the remaining walls and the gate.
· Extend the right tower upwards by 6 blocks, and the adjacent fence upwards by 3 blocks.
· Place two half-walls and one low wall on the left.
· Paint the walls the same color as the main tower, but change the front to a red brick material. The design was inspired by Cinderella's castle.
· Use a darker brick material inside the walls and add stone material at the very bottom for variation.

4. ✨ The Magic of Details: Decorating the Gate and Walls
· Remove the front corner walls and place a watchtower in the center of the grid. Make the watchtower slightly higher than the side walls.
· Use the group move function on the top left to select two watchtowers, then select overall move. Place them in the air first, overlapping, then bring back the walls. Once completed, return to build mode, and you'll see the watchtowers and walls overlapping.
· To decorate the walls, use white European corner pillars to surround the center. Place corner pillars again one block away to the side.
· Float the watchtower in the air, then place the newly added crenellations. To make half of the crenellations appear empty, use the tip of extending sideways and then removing the existing crenellations.
· Place crenellations on the central wall in the same way. Where extension is not possible, first place a low wall, then place crenellations, and then remove the low wall.
· Reinforce the remaining crenellations on the walls.
· Lay a floor on top of the walls, place 3x3 European slate roofs, and raise them by one block. Float the roof in the air, then place beige-painted wooden support pillars at the four corners of the roof.
· Place brick support pillars painted beige next to the wooden support pillars, and raise the pillars in the central section by one more block. Fill in the remaining space, and place gray wooden support pillars on top of the brick support pillars. Return to build mode, and the roof will return to its original position.
· Place beige-painted wooden lattice windows above the gate, and install the same windows on the side walls. Place black-painted European arched windows in the center of the gate.
· Remove the support pillars on the roof and place beige-painted country dormer windows facing upwards on the roof. Return to build mode to see the effect.
· Float each of the side walls one by one, then place European square pillars in the original wall positions. Place other pillars in the same way to create visually appealing walls.
· Decorate the protruding parts with corner pillars.
· Take out the country double doors and paint the doors and handles white. Turn the doors inward to create arched doors. Place brick support pillars on both sides to add weight.
· Remove the half-walls above and replace them with low walls. Utilize the pattern change feature of the low walls to add detail to the walls. In the same way, wrap crenellations around the top.
· Lay a floor inside the castle and place watchtowers on top. This floor cannot be removed later.
· Overlap the watchtowers above the gate and align them with the patterns on the walls. Overlap both watchtowers.
· Move the floor with the watchtowers outwards. To move the floor back, you must first float the overlapping parts in the air. Once everything is floated, move the floor back to its original position. Enter build mode again, and the main gate will be completed.

5. 🏰 Completing Walls and Towers: Adding Floors, Roofs, and Details
· To lay floors on the walls, float the pillars and watchtowers so they don't overlap. After placing the floor, remove one block of the inner wall and replace it all with low walls. Do the same on the opposite side.
· Extend the watchtower on the left wall, and raise the central part by half a block to connect it naturally.
· Add stairs in the inner section with height differences. Place long stairs on the side, lower the floor by half a block, and add stairs again. Extend a wooden platform in front of the stairs and support it underneath with thin wooden pillars.
· Install railings on the walls and stairs. Add two more doors inside the gate.
· Reinforce the watchtower on the right wall, float the overlapping parts at the corners, and extend the watchtower on the other side. When you re-enter, you'll see they are perfectly overlapped.
· Place roofs on the other towers. Place two European slate roofs crossed, float them, and decorate them with support pillars like the gate. You can return to build mode.
· Decorate the walls with European corner pillars and surround the center with European wall decorations. Place three double doors below and combine various numbers of windows above to create different styles.
· Use different shaped windows on the adjacent buildings. The exterior of the castle is almost complete.
· Place a throne in the center of the hall and decorate it with curtains. Place guards and plants on both sides. Decorate the sides with pillars and flags.
· Freely utilize the spacious area; one room has been decorated as a charming cafe. It can be used for reference.
· Decorate the outside with miscellaneous items.
· Once the interior decoration is complete, lay a floor in the courtyard and plant trees and flowers. Decorate the exterior of the castle with flowers and grass. If necessary, you can also create fields or flower gardens in the exterior space.
· Finally, plant trees in the empty spaces to complete the castle.

6. 👑 Main Tower and High Towers: Adding Grandeur to the Castle
· Passing through the magnificent gate leads to a spacious courtyard. Ascend the side stairs to the top of the walls to enjoy the village view.
· Pass the upper tower and move to the opposite side of the wall. From here, circling the castle leads to the hall.
· The throne in the center of the hall inspires imagination as if you were a king or queen. If you're tired, you can relax at the adjacent cafe.
· There are mysterious spaces inside the castle that prevent boredom.
· Place the roof on the main tower and extend it inwards by two blocks. Remove the central wall and place European slate roofs, then float them.
· Place the roof on the main tower; since the roof length is insufficient, overlap two.
· Place half-walls on the front, remove the three central half-walls, and place a row of low walls. Place walls on both sides, extend the central low wall upwards, and then reposition the walls to create a unique pattern.
· Float the roof and decorate it with support pillars.
· Reinforce the watchtower on the side tower, lay a floor, and place two watchtowers. Float them and create a 2x2 cube on top, then place a roof on it.
· Lay a floor on the rear tower, place watchtowers on the low tower, and wall decorations on the high tower.
· Place four watchtowers, float them, and surround them with support pillars to create a high tower. Reposition the watchtowers to complete the high tower, adding depth to the castle.
· Place corner pillars on the corners of the main tower and place European wall decorations in the center. Place three double doors below and various windows above to create a style.
