The experience of getting inside Harry Potter Wizarding World is a sure treat for fans, and for others who just want a great time with their kids, it’s not too bad as well. Stuart Craig, a production designer who was a fixture in all Harry Potter films, headed the team that designed the park. No wonder the richness and authenticity of the park’s details are commendable. For any fan, it’s is the closest thing to being in the real world of Harry Potter. The experience is as genuine s it gets. One cannot buy popcorn or cotton candy here, it’s all butter beer and Nimbus 2000 broomsticks for sale!
There’s an actual Hogwarts Castle standing, a sure symbol that the visitor is indeed in this magical world. Walking through its hallways is a complete experience with talking portraits and real-life people as Harry, Ron, Hermione and even Prof. Dumbledore make surprise appearances. The famed greenhouse of Professor Sprout is even there!
As for the rides, there is the main one, Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey as well as the Dragon Challenge, where one can compare the two rides, The Hungarian Horntail and the higher and faster Chinese Fireball. For guests who want a more relaxed ride, there’s a coaster ride named Flight of the Hippogriff.
