How to download and install Minecraft maps
Minecraft allows users to create as many worlds as they want and each world has its own layout, biomes, structures, etc., based on the world seed. These maps come with structures in the game that are common to all maps, for example, towns, temples, fortresses, etc. Like the worlds, users can also download and play on custom Minecraft maps.
Minecraft Maps
Minecraft maps are user-created worlds. Unlike the worlds that the game generates directly, these maps have been made with special structures and with a theme and / or design. You can, for example, download maps that have built-in arenas or castles. These maps can be downloaded from third parties or from the Minecraft Marketplace.

conclusion
Minecraft worlds that are for the Java version will not run on the Bedrock version. All maps in the market will run in the version from which you are accessing the market. You cannot convert a map to another version. Many maps use shaders and resource packs. If your system hardware cannot handle the shaders and resource bundles used by a map, you may not be able to install it or the map may not load correctly. Minecraft maps are generally not very large. It is rare for maps to be 500MB, so if you find a map that is 1GB in size, this is an exception. Downloads from Minecraft Marketplace tend to be slow. A small map of as little as 100MB can take ten minutes to download. There is nothing you can do about it except be patient.
