'''Traverse Town''' is the first major playable [[World|world]] in ''[[Kingdom Hearts (game)|Kingdom Hearts]]'' outside of [[Destiny Islands]]. A quaint and calm town, Traverse Town is where survivors of destroyed worlds take shelter after their world is destroyed.  It is the first place [[Sora]] lands after he is drawn out of the disappearing [[Destiny Islands]]. 
 
[[Squall Leonhart]], [[Yuffie Kisaragi]], [[Aerith Gainsborough]], [[Cid Highwind]] and [[Merlin]] from [[Hollow Bastion]], the [[Fairy Godmother]], [[101 Dalmatians|Pongo and Perdita]], [[Pinocchio]] and [[Geppetto]] are notable residents. [[Huey]], [[Dewey]] and [[Louie]] own the item shop, while Cid owns the accessory shop and later sells [[Gummi Blocks]] to upgrade and modify Gummi Ships. Merlin allows [[Sora]] to practice his magic on neutral targets, and the Fairy Godmother unlocks [[Summons]] after certain conditions are met.
 
==Setting==
Traverse Town is similar to a Victorian-age town in design and layout. It is divided into three major districts along with several minor locations such as alleyways and caves. Besides being created from fragments of destroyed worlds and serving as a home to those who's worlds have been destroyed by the Heartless, Traverse Town is also a great place to shop.
 
===First District===
The '''First District''' is the most peaceful of the three, without the presence of [[Heartless]]. The First District is where most survivors of the destroyed worlds can be found. The most notable locations include the accessory shop owned and managed by Cid, the item shop run by Huey, Dewey and Louie, and a synthesizing shop run by [[Moogle]]s on the top floor of Cid's store. There is a restaurant with magical self-lighting candles to the left of the town entrance, and Geppetto and Pinocchio move into a green-doored house nearby after the [[Monstro]] world is completed.  The mailbox used in the [[Postcard]] hunt is also found here, close to the door leading into the Third District. Directly across from the accessory shop is a large set of double-doors which serve as the entrance to the town and can return the player to the world map to choose another world to travel to.
 
===Second District===
[[Image:Traverse_Town_(Second_District).jpg|thumb|The Second District]]
 
The '''Second District''' is infested with a variety of Heartless. Notable locations include the '''Gizmo Shop'''; a bell on the roof can eventually be rung 3 times to reveal the world's keyhole.  The home of Pongo and Perdita is also nearby, down a narrow back alley.  The '''Hotel''' on the west side of the District is often invaded by Heartless, but can be entered through the '''Lobby'''; in addition, the '''Red Room''' and '''Green Room''' where Sora, [[Donald Duck|Donald]], and [[Goofy]] are briefed by Leon and Aerith can also be investigated further.  The east side of town includes the entrance to Third District, as well as a set of roofs that can be climbed to reach treasures and a hidden entrance to a balcony in the Third District.  Finally, the world's keyhole is hidden in the fountain just in front of the First District entrance.
 
===Third District===
[[Image: KH-TraverseTown_ThirdDistrict.jpg|thumb|right|Third District]]
 
The '''Third District''' is a plaza also overrun with [[Heartless]], but is the smallest of the three main districts.  Notable areas is the '''Vacant House''' next to the Second District's door, where Leon and his crew eventually claim as the '''Small House''', their headquarters.  The most notable feature in this district is the golden fountain of [[wikipedia:Lady and the Tramp|Lady and the Tramp]].  In another corner, a short alley leads to a door with a flame on it that goes to the '''Mystical House''', and in turn the '''Magician's Study''', where Merlin and the Fairy Godmother take up residence.  The book that serves as the entrance to the [[100 Acre Wood]] can also be found in the study.  Casting [[Thunder]] on the exposed cable wire raises the platforms in the Second District Gizmo Shop. Finally, a keyhole next to the giant door to First District can also be found and unlocked for faster access to that area.
 
===Other Areas===
The '''Back Alley''' is accessible through the Third District, by leaping over the crates at one end to go back to the First District, through the Dalmatians' house, and from the balconies of the hotel.  Going through the drainage grate opposite the crates allows Sora to enter the '''Secret Waterway''', which serves as Leon's secret training ground, as well as a back entrance to the Magician's Study.
 
==Story==
[[Image:TraverseTownCoM.png|right|thumb|Traverse Town as it appears in ''[[Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories]]''.]]
===''[[Kingdom Hearts]]''===
After the destruction of Destiny Islands, Sora ends up in Traverse Town. He is awakened by [[Pluto]] and ventures out into the town, eventually meeting [[Leon]] whom he fights. Regardless of the outcome, Sora passes out and finds himself in a hotel where he meets Yuffie and learns about the [[Keyblade]] and the [[Heartless]], while next door, [[Aerith]] explains the same things to [[Donald]] and [[Goofy]]. Heartless attack, forcing Sora and Leon to fight off the attacking [[Heartless]]. Leon tells Sora not to worry about the attacking [[Soldier]] and [[Shadow]] Heartless and find their leader. As Sora enters the Third District, Donald and Goofy are blown off a balcony above, and land on him. The three battle and defeat numerous [[Soldier]] Heartless and The [[Guard Armor]] Boss. The three become companions and leave to find [[Riku]], [[Kairi]] and [[King Mickey]]. They return multiple times, Sora reuniting with [[Riku]] and sealing the Keyhole, meeting Merlin and the Fairy Godmother, and also when a saved Kairi gives Sora her lucky charm. When the worlds are restored after the defeat of [[Xehanort|Ansem]], the fate of Traverse Town is unknown, as its residents return to their worlds.
 
===''[[Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories]]''===
A memory-created version of Traverse Town is the first world Sora visits while in [[Castle Oblivion]], as this is where Marluxia teaches Sora how to fight within the castle. He meets Leon and the others. They don't recognize Sora, but somehow remember his name. This is a recurring problem for the rest of the game. Aerith tells Sora near the end of the visit that she and everyone else may be nothing but a figment in Sora's memory. Leon and the others help him fight the Heartless nonetheless.
 
===''[[Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days]]''===
Traverse Town makes a cameo in 358/2 Days as Roxas has a memory of Traverse Town thought to be one of Sora's memories.
 
===''[[Kingdom Hearts coded]]''===
Traverse Town has been confirmed to appear in the new game, Kingdom Hearts coded. A virtual Sora will meet King Mickey here. From one of few screenshots availible, it appears that the first district is no longer peaceful, as a battle versus numerous heartless and "bugs" is witnessed.
 
==Boss Information==
 
Traverse Town has a total of 4 boss fights. After searching the town, a fight will engage against [[Leon]]. However, this fight is not nesseccarily important, as you can lose and still continue the story. If you do win, Leon hands over an [[Elixir]] before you leave. Following is the [[Guard Armor]]. After Leon tells you to look for the leader, this fight becomes open in the 3rd District. Unlike Leon, you must win this fight to continue. This becomes a little easier, as [[Donald]] and [[Goofy]] have joined your team. The prize is a [[Brave Warrior]] upon defeat. After clearing the [[Deep Jungle]], A visit to Traverse Town occurs to find the [[Keyhole]]. After ringing the Gizmo Shop Bell 3 times, the Keyhole appears in the 2nd District in the fountain. Once you reach it, the [[Guard Armor]] reappears. After removing only partial HP, The Boss turns over and becomes the [[Opposite Armor]] Upon defeat, the [[Aero]] spell and a [[Navi-G Piece]] is acquired.
