==Areas==
 
{{Expand}}The Tower is divided into the following five areas. New arrivals appear in the [[Tower Plaza]], the central hub from which all other areas are accessible.<ref name="Tower NPC Video" />
  +
  +
[[File:TowerPlaza.jpeg|thumb|right|200px|Tower Plaza]]
  +
The Tower Plaza is the first area entered by Guardians when arriving in the Tower. It is the central area and branches off into the other four sections. This area generally serves as a meeting place for Guardians coming and going from the Tower. There are also kiosks for Guardians to access their [[Vault]] and the Silver Dust store.
  +
  +
[[File:TowerNorth.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Tower North]]
  +
To the left of Tower Plaza lies Tower North, an area that encompasses several other vendors and kiosks. This area includes an observation tower with a perfect view of the Traveler. [[The Speaker]] generally resides here.
  +
  +
[[File:HallOfGuardians_1.jpg|thumb|200px|right|Hall of Guardians]]
  +
Heading in the direction the Guardian faces when spawning in the Tower leads them to the Hall of Guardians, a location where Guardians can purchase [[Crucible]] and [[Vanguard]] [[weapon]]s and [[armor]]. It is a central hub connecting the main weapons and arms distributors of the Vanguard and the Crucible. It also encompasses two kiosks for Guardians to reclaim [[Rarity|exotic]] [[weapon]]s and [[armor]].
  +
  +
[[File:1412687212travelers walk.jpg|thumb|200px|Traveler's Walk]]
  +
Directly above is the Traveler's Walk, which was originally only accessible during special events, including the [[Iron Banner]] events and the original [[Queen's Wrath]] event that took place between September 23 and October 6, 2014. In January 2017, at the end of [[The Dawning]] event, the area was opened permanently. Several fish can be found in the pools next to the central walkway, and there is even a dead [[Ghost]] in this location.
  +
  +
[[File:1412689426tower hangar.jpg|thumb|200px|Tower Hangar]]
  +
The Tower Hanger is located at the far east side of the Tower. When a player arrives in the Tower, their [[jumpship]] can be seen landing in this area. At the lowest part of this area is a [[Jukebox Easter Egg|jukebox]] that can play music if the player interacts with it. There are also several kiosks in this locations for players to retrieve jumpships, [[emote]]s, and [[Sparrow]]s they have previously unlocked.

Trivia

  • Bungie art director Christopher Barrett described the Tower as "Earth's Camelot," a glimmering stronghold surrounded by shadows.[3][4] The Tower is designed to have a "human futuristic aesthetic" composed of "contemporary inspiration plus some number of years, like ten to 50 years of advancement."[4] Vehicles and architecture within the Tower resemble present day vehicles and architecture, but more futuristic with some Japanese influence.[4] At the same time, the Tower feels "lived in," with broken tiles, scars of past battles, and repairs and additions over top of the original futuristic architecture.[4] Above all, the Tower is designed to feel hopeful and bright.[4]
  • According to an NPC in the Tower, it is rumored that some time in the past, the City once possessed a dozen Towers, but the others all fell to the Darkness.[5]
  • There is a soccer ball that can be kicked around by players. It has three spawn locations:
    • Behind the post office, on the side facing the North Tower, in front of a stack of crates and cylinders.
    • Beside a stack of crates under the stairs next to the North Tower.
    • Beside a stack of crates opposite the foot of the stairs next to the North Tower.
  • There is a purple beach ball that can be tossed around by players using their feet or heads. It has four possible spawn locations:
    • On a stack of crates to the right of Xander 99-40, the Bounty Hunter.
    • On a brown table at the left side of Master Rahool, the Cryptarch.
    • During an event, when the Events area behind the Bounty Tracker is open, two additional beach balls can spawn, providing a total of three active beach balls:
      • On or behind a stack of crates to the right when entering the events area.
      • On top of a keg beside a bunch of crates half way along the left side of the events area.
  • There is a secret button on the platform above were Eris used to stand before she moved to the hall of the Guardians. It activates the fan on the roof of the building containing the Postmaster and Special Orders vendors, briefly launching any Guardian standing on it into the air.
  • At the point where new Guardians arrive in the Tower, the Latin phrase "ATRIVM PROPVGNATORVM" can be read just below the center staircase on the ground. This translates to "Hall of Champions" in English. The line below that phrase on the map of the Tower in the Destiny companion app: "Juvenes erant Sparte muros el hastes fines eius" can translate to "Young men were the walls of Sparta, their spears its borders."
  • The Tower's signs are displayed in three languages: English, Portuguese, and Chinese.
  • Seven coins are hidden in the design of the environments around the Tower.[6][7]
  • In Update 1.1.2, the Jukebox Easter Egg was added to the Tower Hangar.
  • Players can select whether or not their helmet is worn in the Settings menu.
