The Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal Orlando is nothing short of AMAZING!!! Universal has truly made magic!
The Wizarding World is broken into two sections. The first section is Hogsmeade in Islands of Adventure. This is where you will find the Hogwarts Castle, as well as the beautiful town of Hogsmeade. The second section is Diagon Alley in Universal Studios. This is where you will find Gringotts Bank, complete with a show-stopping dragon! Both sections of the Wizard World are connected via the Hogwarts Express Train. Be aware, in order to ride the Hogwarts Express Train, you MUST have the park-to-park option on your park tickets. This allows you to “hop” between the parks throughout the day.
