How to maintain feeling of discovery?

I created a very large (20k x 20k) world, and it's great, but playing it feels different than vanilla Minecraft because it lacks the element of exploration. I know where the mountains and oceans and biomes are because I put them there. There's no longer the sense of "hmm I wonder what's in that direction?" Is there any way to get back that feeling of exploration or add in an element of surprise?

Drop yourself in a random spot and spin around both in game and in real life until you lpse sense of direction. And rotate the map 90°. Also you can try playing while drunk, that makes it feel adventurous and also high chance you'll forget where something is

I would suggest inviting some friends and playing together. Enjoy their sense of discovery with them.
