Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (5)

 Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

Tower Bridge appears in Harry Potter and the Order of Phoenix in this scene:  Tower Bridge in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix  Tower Bridge is located at Tower Bridge Rd, London SE1 2UP, United Kingdom.  You can walk or drive across the lower section of the bridge at any time, free of charge.  But if you'd like to go in the towers and walk across the walkways and on the glass floor or see the engine rooms, you have to purchase a ticket.  I'd recommend purchasing them at least a day in advance because they do sell out.  Tickets cost 16 pounds per adult and 8 pounds per child, and you can purchase them on their official website here:  Tower Bridge  They are open from 9:30 am until the last entrance at 4:30 p.m.

Harry Potter Studios in London

Warner Brothers Studio Tour London is located at Studio Tour Dr, Leavesden, Watford WD25 7LR, United Kingdom.  If you are a Harry Potter fan, it is a definite must-visit if you are ever in London.  The tickets are rather expensive, and you have to book them far in advance, but it is worth it.  Tickets are 56 pounds for adults, and they also offer family tickets, and tickets with added benefits.  I recommend purchasing priority parking so that you have parking right next to the entrance.  The Studio is open from 9:30 a.m. to 10 o'clock at night.  

Several aspects of this movie can be found during a tour of Harry Potters Studios in London.  One item you'll see at the Studio is Buckbeak, the male hippogriff that Hagrid renames Witherwings in this movie.

The Mirror of Erised, which is so named because "erised" is "desire" spelled backwards.  The mirror shows not your true reflection, but your heart's desire

The Studio has a Platform 9 3/4 that you can pose next to for photos

The Dursley Home on Privet Drive is standing outside the studio

The Dining Hall is featured in every Harry Potter movie.  It was actually fashioned after the dining hall at Christ Church, Oxford.  No filming was done in the Christ Church dining hall, however.  The set was created to mimic this high-ceilinged dining hall and filming for all of the movies was done at the Studio.

The students walk through this bridge in this movie and several of the other movies

The Hogwarts Castle was built as a miniature and was used in scenes for each movie with the weather changing on the set.  When we visited, it was snowing at the castle.  There are other models built of the Hogwarts set that were used in filming also.

The Hogwarts Express is part of each Harry Potter movie as well.  The train sits on display in the studio and people can walk through it and look in each train car.
