Towers Street is an area at the entrance to [[Alton Towers]], where the mass crowds cram at opening and closing times. It feaures the 'Harrods of Alton', Towers Trading. It is here that your journey into <s>heaven</s> [[Alton Towers]] begins, albeit with a photo or overpriced coffee. It is also the 'patch' of the mascots during [[Closed]] Season.

== Area 'Highlights' ==

*Towers Trading Company - An emporium to all things [[Alton Towers]] and expensive.

*Towers Family Restaraunt - For the greedy and rich.

*Corner Coffee - Unwind here with an outrageously priced drink or pastry.

*[[Skyride]] - The most flammable transport system in the world starts here. Board at your own risk.

*[[Monorail]] - No explanation necessary.

*Facilities - Toilets, telephones, and the like.
