The Wizarding World Of Harry Potter
Here we are. We walked towards the Hogwarts castle and encountered this place. I remember it is from The Goblet of Fire where Harry faced the You-Know-Who?
Keep on walking.
On the way, we found Ron’s flying car (it wasn’t flying though). Cool.
Walked through the entrance and there was the world of Harry Potter out there!
Amazing when I think like how much effort creators made for this.
After taking (hundreds of) photos, we entered the Hogwarts Castle for the “Harry Potter and The Forbidden Journey” ride. Wait…it shows the wait time is 260 minutes!
However no worries. This is for whom without the Universal Express Pass. This is the benefit of having this ticket. It took us just 10-20 minutes to get to the rides.
Since numbers of people who can enter this area are limited, it wouldn’t be busy in there. Nice. The ride was cool. It really felt like we were flying for real!
Actually after the ride I felt a little sick. 3D sick? Quidditch sick? Whatever you call it.
Had a butter beer after the ride. Cheers (clink).
Lastly
I learned that we can buy lots of time by the Universal Express Pass. Totally worth it. Hope it helps.
See you around!
Looks like you had a good time
