This article is about the Radiant Garden excluding Hollow Bastion from Kingdom Hearts and Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories. For the article about the castle itself, see Hollow Bastion.

The Radiant Garden is a world in Kingdom Hearts II. However, it appears in the other two games as Hollow Bastion, the castle which lies in the center of the world. The rest of the world is destroyed in those two games. The world itself was named "Hollow Bastion" during Xehanort and Maleficent's reign of the castle. It regains its name in Kingdom Hearts II after Tron finds a record of it in the computer's database and shows everyone what the town looked like when it started out. Everyone from Radiant Garden remembers the name.

In Kingdom Hearts II, the Radiant Garden plays a similar role to Traverse Town in Kingdom Hearts as a sort of "home base" for Sora.


Areas

In Town

Sora first arrives in Radiant Garden (still known as "Hollow Bastion" at the time) at the Marketplace where all the shops are located. Down the stairs past the item shop is the Borough, which seems to be a residential area and where Merlin's House is. It's also the Hollow Bastion Restoration Committee's base of operations and leads to the world 100 Acre Wood. If you continue, you will come across the Bailey which at first allows a look the Villian's Vale and access to the Restoration Site. After the events of your first visit to Space Paranoids, the Bailey is changed. Now the outer wall of the city has been broken down and you can travel to the Castle Gate. If you go to the Restoration Site, you will find equipment to restore the town. It is also changed after your first visit to Space Paranoids, which allows you to get two new treasures. At the end of the Restoration Site you will find the Postern. The Postern leads to the Corridors under the castle which leads to Ansem's Study. Ansem's Study includes of his desk and personal library and his computer room. Ansem's Study leads to the world Space Paranoids and the Heartless Manufactory. If you go to the Castle Gate from the Bailey, a old gate that is similar to the one in Kingdom Hearts (game). From the Castle Gate, you will reach the Ravine Trail. The long and winding Ravine Trail leads to the Crystal Fissure, a small cave-like area with glowing crystals. This leads to The Great Maw, a large area where the 1000 Heartless Battle was fought. The next area is The Dark Depths, where you can fight Sephiroth.

In Kingdom Hearts II: Final Mix+, new areas are added including Cave of Rememberance and Garden of Assemblage. These areas can be accessed from a new hole in the Postern.
