New overworld structure (Cave ruins)

Okay, hear me out. While dungeons, desert temples, jungle temples, the stronghold, and ocean monuments are great. I think that there needs to be a structure that we can EXPLORE. It doesn't need to be overpowered but it should have some loot that would make a new player excited and an experienced player happy with it. The structure would be a large system of underground caves and some ruins. It would have a small exposed hole in the side of a mountain or the ground with vines. this could also be an opportunity to use cave update features such as poison mushrooms or just new traps and puzzles. I've been playing Minecraft for about 7 years now and it would be cool if I could feel that feeling of excitement and wonder about a structure, and I know there are many other players that feel the same way. Thanks for reading. I hope this gets some votes!

  In general, more structures with randomly generated rooms and layouts would be great for exploration. Think desert temple (1 room with loot, every one is approached the same) vs woodland mansion (many rooms in unique configurations, requiring adaptation in its approach and rewarding exploration with loot throughout rather than only at a single goal).

  Relating to this suggestion, I have two opinions. First, the structure should not use monster spawners as a trap; multiple spawners in close proximity can easily be defused then are abusable in a farm. Second, it would be great if the structure had a large variety of traps; with little variation in traps between structures, learning to avoid them becomes easy enough that the traps are rendered ineffective.

  I love this idea! Anything cave-related i would love in minecraft...
  Maybe there could be different versions, like soggy caves that have small lakes of water that have sea pickles in them, and water dripping from the ceiling and in some areas, having water pour into the lakes. There could also be a lava variant in lower layers of the world.

  Yes! I agree there should be a underground ruin, I feel that it would give another reason to mine. Compared to the other structures and where they are found. Having one hidden would be fun to find and explore, compared to a dungeon. It would give the underground a better look and make it varied and different feel overall.
