In the books and films, the Hogwarts Express sets off from Platform 9 ¾ at London's Kings Cross station. Its beautiful buildings were used for many of the most striking Harry Potter filming locations in England, standing in for various parts of Hogwarts Castle.

This venerable University is the oldest in the English speaking world. This is one of the most iconic Harry Potter filming locations, and not only can you visit the castle but you can take broomstick flying lessons for yourself! We think it's fair to say that Alnwick is as close as it gets to the real Harry Potter Castle, but you should also check out beautiful Durham Cathedral, where Professor McGonagall's classroom was filmed in the Chapter House, and 7th Century Gloucester Cathedral, where many of the corridor shots were shot in the ornate cloisters and where Moaning Myrtle flooded the toilet. Harry and his fellow students learned to fly broomsticks with Madam Hooch in the courtyards here, and it's also where Harry mastered the rules of Quidditch and played his first game, and memorably where Harry and Ron crash-landed the Weasley's flying car! Hogwarts students and staff were regularly seen going about their activities in the castle grounds, or walking through the Lion Arch out of Hogwarts towards Hagrid's cabin and the Forbidden Forest.
