History Main / TreetopTown

* Another elven example: the Basic DungeonsAndDragons supplement The Elves of Alfheim. In Alfheim the elves have various tree houses connected by ladders and catwalks. The area "Sky City" in Alfheim Town is a network of rope bridges and catwalks connecting "treeforts" in the huge Sentinel Trees. And then "you'll walk right under it and never notice" type of Wood Elf settlements everywhere.

* The Viera in ''FinalFantasyXII'' live in a tree town, though it doesn't seem to be quite as high as the tops.
* In ''{{Final Fantasy X-2}}'', Kilka Town appears like this.

* Fortree City in ''[[PokemonRubyAndSapphire Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald]]''. This is taken to new heights (literally) in the ''PokemonSpecial'' manga, where Sapphire and Winona have their Gym battle (Winona's the Gym Leader, naturally) in the city proper rather than an actual Gym.

* The home of Prince Barran's forest people in FlashGordon.

* Level Six in ''[[{{Turok}} Turok: Dinosaur Hunter]]''.

* The [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Korowai Korowai]] from the Indoensian province of Papua, the southeastern part of the western part of New Guinea, live in tree houses.

* In ''{{Final Fantasy X-2}}'' Kilka Town appears like this.

* Level Six in ''[[TurokDinosaurHunter Turok: Dinosaur Hunter]]''.

* [[http://kirbymuseum.org/blogs/365fourth/2010/10/day-11-habitat/ Habitat]], from the JackKirby run on ''{{Superman}}'s Pal Jimmy Olsen''. It was inhabited by a biker gang by the time Jimmy and company stumbled across it, but it was built by The Hairies, [[OurElvesAreDifferent youthful super-geniuses]] created by a [[SecretProjectRefugeeFamily secret government genetic engineering project]].

* The Ewok village in StarWars is one, as are the Wookiee dwellings on Kashyyyk.

* The fey, mask-wearing bandits in QuestOfTheDeltaKnights have a hideout consisting of a bunch of rope bridges and wooden platforms. When the heroes escape from their flimsy jail cell, they get chased around and around the set ad nauseum.

* The Elves of Lothlorien live in these in TheLordOfTheRings.
* Treetown in {{Dinotopia}}.

* The Nasat homeworld in the StarTrekNovelVerse.

* The TropeNamer is one of two DonkeyKongCountry levels in this setting.
* The Channelwood Age in {{Myst}} includes one.
* The elven village in the Tularean forest in MightAndMagic VII.
* Both elf cities in {{Arcanum}}.
* Fortree City in {{Pokemon}} Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald. This is taken to new heights (literally) in the ''PokemonSpecial'' manga, where Sapphire and Winona have their gym battle (Winona's the gym leader, natch) in the city proper rather than an actual gym.

* Level Six in [[TurokDinosaurHunter Turok: Dinosaur Hunter]].

* There's one of these in ThreadsOfFate, with tons of respawning mooks that are easy to [[LevelGrinding grind]] with.

* In {{Wizardry}} 8, Trynton, home of the Trynnie, is an uber-example of the Treetop Town: seven "boughs" (varying areas), with one of the boughs being infested by the Rattkin. To some extent, {{Wizardry}} VII: Crusaders of the Dark Savant did this as well with the "Rattkin Ruins," although the effect is far less dramatic.

* The wood elf city of Kelethin in ''Everquest'' is this, complete with a lack of railings on the platforms and bridges, and numerous newbie corpses littering the ground below.

* In AvatarTheLastAirbender, Jet and his freedom fighters live in a treetop village.
* The Warrior Maidens' village from {{Thundercats}}.
* [[TheSimpsons Bart Simpson]] thought he and his friends could build one when they got trapped on an island, but it turned out it was hard to do so they went all LordOfTheFlies instead.

* In the first remake of ''King Solomon's Mines'' (with Richard Chamberlain) they meet a tribe of people who live entirely in the trees, never touching the ground.

* The Nasat homeworld in the StarTrekExpandedUniverse.

* In [[Quest of Camelittle]], Elfdust City is a magical Tree Top Town hidden within Elven Forest.

[[OurElvesAreBetter Wood Elves]] are frequent inhabitants of such a place, and it has become a often-used version of the HiddenElfVillage. Can be a bit of a WallBanger if immortal elves are involved, as trees ''don't'' live forever and the residents would have to relocate every few decades or centuries.
