The exhibition is based on the fictional world of Harry Potter, famous from the books by British author J.K. Rowling and film adaptations. It takes visitors on a journey through the scenes, costumes and locations of the movies.
“The Portkey comes to life, guests can explore the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and experience familiar places such as Hagrid’s Hut and the Forbidden Forest,” say the organisers.
