If you want to see the actual location used in the movies, head over to platforms 4 and 5.įans of the car scene at the beginning of "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" can also check out the exterior of St. It's a great place to grab a photo reenacting the moment when Harry runs through the wall the first time, though we don't recommend actually trying to run through the wall. At the entrance to platforms 9, 10 and 11, you'll find a trolley "disappearing" into what would be Platform 9 ¾. While there is no magical portal to Platform 9 ¾ that you can run through, you can visit two spots at Kings Cross Station that are special to the films. It's where students board the Hogwarts Express on their way to the wizarding boarding school featured throughout the "Harry Potter" stories. Kings Cross station acts as one of the doorways between London's Muggle and wizarding communities.

There are quite a few spots in London that you'll recognize from the "Harry Potter" films, plus it's only a short trip from the city to the studio that houses many of the movie sets.
While not an exhaustive list, it features all of the primary spots used during filming, so you're bound to feel like a wizard - even without an acceptance letter from Hogwarts. See which spots you'll want to prioritize by reading this roundup of the major "Harry Potter" locations in the U.K. Lucky for me (and any other "Harry Potter" fan), there are numerous filming locations you can visit throughout the United Kingdom. But despite all of these fun "Harry Potter" moments, I've never actually seen any of the filming locations in person. I've been to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal Studios Orlando, explored the flagship store in New York City and even planned a cross-country road trip during college to experience a "Harry Potter"-themed fall festival outside of Philadelphia.

Like many longtime fans of the "Harry Potter" books and films, I rewatched the movies after seeing the recent "Return to Hogwarts" reunion special on HBO Max.
