Bowling area is a term used to describe the area in which bowling takes place. It typically consists of an alley and a LANE. An alley is a long, narrow passage or corridor, usually lined with shops or businesses. A LANE is a narrow strip of land, typically between two buildings or walls, used for a specific purpose such as a road or railway track. Together, these two components form the bowling area, providing a space for people to enjoy the game of bowling.
