==Setting==
Traverse Town is similar to a Victorian-age town. It is divided into three main districts, plus a few other small areas.


==Kingdom Hearts==
===First District===
 
 
After the destruction of Destiny Islands, Sora ends up in Traverse Town. He is awakend by [[Pluto]] and ventures out into the town, eventually meeting [[Leon]] whom he fights. After the battle 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 there leader. Sora goes to the Third District. Donald and Goofy are blown off a balcony above Sora, and land on him. The three battle and defeat numerous [[Soldier]] and [[Shadow]] 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.
 
 
==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 recognise Sora, but somehow remember his name. 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: Coded==
 
 
Traverse Town has been confirmed to appear in the new game, Kingdom Hearts: Coded. A virtual Sora will meet King Mickey here.
 
 
==The Town's Structure==
 
 
Traverse Town is similar to a Victorian-age town. It is divided into three districts.
 
 
===First Disctrict===

The First District is the most peaceful one, without the presence of Heartless. This is were most survivors of Heartless attacking and destroying worlds mostly be. The most notable places are the accessory shop, run by Cid; the item shop run by Huey, Dewey and Louie, a synthesizing shop run by [[Moogles]] on top of Cid's shop. There is also a restaurant with automatically self-lighting candles, witch can only be burned out by the Blizzard spell. There is also Geppetto's house, witch doesn't appear until you defeat the Monstro level. There's also side quest in obtaining postcards, each granting different prizes respectively. The mailbox is close to the third districts door, it has a long tongue sticking out of it.

Only shadows appear in the first district, and they only appear there after
exploring all three districts of Traverse Town for the first time
after meeting Cid in the accessory shop. They stop appearing here after you fight Leon.

The Second District is infested with Heartless, but is relatively peaceful. Notable locations include the clock workshop and the clock tower, were a bell can be rung 3 times to reveal the keyhole. The rather pointless shoe shop, and the home of Pongo and Perdita. The hotel here is often invaded by Heartless (and the hotel clerk hides behind some curtains). Behind the hotel is a back alley which leads to the sewers and a secret cave where Leon does his training. Sora receives Kairi's lucky charm here, as well as the [[Oathkeeper]] Keyblade. The world's keyhole is also located in the second district after you defeat [[Opposite Armor]].
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 hidden areas.  Finally, the world's Keyhole is hidden in the fountain just in front of the First District entrace.

===Third District===
[[Image: KH-TraverseTown_ThirdDistrict.jpg|thumb|right|Third District]]


===Third District===
The '''Third District''' is 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.  Hitting the shorted cable with a [[Thunder]] spell 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.


[[Image: KH-TraverseTown_ThirdDistrict.jpg|thumb|right|Third District]]
===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.


The Third District is overrun with [[Heartless]]. This is were the battle with [[Guard Armor]] occurs. The third district has a sort of plain teal look. Notable areas is the vacant house next to the second districts door, where [[Leon]],[[Yuffie]],[[Aerith]],and [[Kairi]] (who doesn't appear until you defeat the [[Hollow Bastion]] level the first time) stay. The main area in the third district is somewhat like a arena. The most notable part in the third district is the Golden statue of Lady and the Tramp, the part of the movie when they are eating pasta and are about to kiss. There is also a door with a flame on it which leads to a dark area were [[Merlin]] and The [[Fairy Godmother]] reside. There is also a small alley were a Blue [[Trinity Mark]] is, a small ledge where [[Donald]] and [[Goofy]] are blown off by a few Soldier [[Heartless]], and a power shorted cable which unlocks the third to first districts door. It can be activated by the Thunder spell. The third district only contains one postcard.
