	The End is another dimension of the game where the player battles the [[Minecraft:ender dragon]]. The End is accessed by entering an [[Minecraft:End portal]] found in a [[Minecraft:stronghold]]. The End is composed of [[Minecraft:End stone]] and is inhabited by [[Minecraft:endermen]]. It also contains tall [[Minecraft:obsidian pillar]]s on top of which are [[Minecraft:End crystal]]s that heal the ender dragon. Once the ender dragon is slain, the [[Minecraft:exit portal]] is created in the center of the map and an [[Minecraft:End gateway portal]] is created near an edge of the map, which transports the player to the expansive [[Minecraft:outer End islands]] which are full of [[Minecraft:chorus fruit]] forests and [[Minecraft:End cities]] filled of [[Minecraft:chest loot]] and [[Minecraft:shulker]]s. The End gateway portal is only accessed by throwing an [[Minecraft:ender pearl]], using [[Minecraft:elytra]] or [[Minecraft:trapdoor]]s to enter the portal. There are no ores in the End.
