The Millennium Bridge collapsed into the River Thames during the dramatic open of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.

18. Goathland Station, England
Does Goathland Station not ring a bell? That’s because Warner Bros. transformed it into Hogsmeade Station. This charming station acted as the final stop where students would happily disembark to start another year at the best school for witchcraft and wizardry in the world, Hogwarts.

Loch Shiel was one of the two gorgeous lakes used for Hogwarts Lake. It made an appearance in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, where Buckbeak dipped his feet in the water while Harry rode on its back and again in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince where Harry and Hermione looked across Hogwarts Lake from the Astronomy Tower at the end of the movie.
24. Piccadilly Circus, London
Think back to Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 1 when Harry, Ron, and Hermione had to leave Bill (Ron’s older brother) and Fleur’s wedding when they learned Death Eaters were after them. That scene where they were running through the West End was filmed in Piccadilly Circus.
25. Steall Falls, Scotland
This gorgeous waterfall is the second-highest of its kind in Britain. It was also the location of the Triwizard Tournament where Harry battled the Hungarian Horntail dragon in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.
We know it’s still hard to grasp that the owl never delivered your Hogwarts letter. But a visit to any of these destinations will make you forget about that as they bring the magic of Harry Potter back to life.
