The giant castle will house the the state-of-the-art ‘Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey’ attraction at the The Wizarding World of Harry Potter theme park.

Set to open this spring and inspired by J.K. Rowling’s books, The Wizarding World of Harry Potter will feature, shops, a restaurant and Harry Potter themed attractions like the Hogwarts Express, Hogsmeade station, the Three Broomsticks and Hog’s Head pub. In other worlds, more Harry Potter than you can shake your wand at.
