Wizard Right Makes Me Think Of Magic #roadtrip

Harry Potter Castle.

Universal Studios Harry Potter Castle 🏯 The magic academy is located in a deep forest or steep mountains, surrounded by magic. The architectural style of the academy is ancient and solemn, blending elements of fantasy and mystery. The exterior of the building is made up of magnificent stone carvings, magnificent spires, and arches, exuding an ancient and magical atmosphere. When you enter the academy, you will find it full of activities of wizards and apprentices. The corridors are filled with the breath of magic, and you can occasionally hear faint and mysterious spells. The walls are covered with paintings of magical runes and spells, creating a mysterious and magical atmosphere.

My God, it's so shocking, no way, this is the Harry Potter in America

Wayfaring Wizards Welcomed is the degree of missing Harry Potter's magical world as soon as you leave. Compared to Universal Beijing, it has Diagon Alley/King's Cross Station/Hagrid's motorcycle, which instantly fills the atmosphere. In Diagon Alley, I asked a wizard when the dragon in Gringotts would spit fire: when she feels she needs to. I realized that I really came to the magical world.

Harry Potter: My inner Hufflepuff!

Hufflepuff was one of the four Houses of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Its founder was the medieval witch Helga Hufflepuff. Hufflepuff was the most inclusive among the four houses, valuing hard work, dedication, patience, loyalty, and fair play rather than a particular aptitude in its members. The emblematic animal was a badger, and yellow and black were its house colours. Hufflepuffs were known to have a strong moral code, and a sense of right and wrong. Hufflepuffs were usually accepting of everyone. Hufflepuffs were known to value everyone and treat them as equal. Let’s goooooo! 💛🖤 #tripblazers #passionpassport

the magical place!!

#themepark

There are several bookstores here. I highly recommend Screed & Sons, Tomes and Scrolls and Flourish & Blotts. These magical places are brought to life in Universal Studios. As you can barely see the Wizarding World of Harry Potter in one day, it's best to reserve at least two days for Universal Studios.
