A torch is a light source that can be placed on walls, ceilings, or the ground to provide illumination. Torches are crafted from one stick and one coal or charcoal. To create a torch in Minecraft, open your crafting table and place the stick in the center square. Then, place the coal or charcoal in the square above the stick. The torch will appear in the square to the right of the coal or charcoal.
Torches are an essential tool for exploring caves and other dark areas. They can also be used to mark paths or to create decorative effects. Torches are a relatively inexpensive way to light up your Minecraft world, and they can be easily crafted with materials that are readily available.
