After more than five years of construction, the Harry Potter World, inspired by the original Harry Potter books, finally meets the Muggle public amid great anticipation. The highlight of this area includes two themed rides, as well as the restaurants “Three Broomsticks” and “The Leaky Cauldron.” Additionally, the park is filled with staff dressed in costumes from the series.
Of course, there are also many shops from the books that are an absolute must-visit, such as Honeydukes Sweetshop, Ollivanders Wand Shop, Owl Post, Zonko’s Joke Shop, Wiseacres Wizarding Equipment, Dervish and Banges, Gladrags Wizardwear, and Filch’s Emporium of Confiscated Goods.
