Harry Potter & The Deathly Hallows Part 1 (7)

Harry Potter & The Deathly Hallows

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 appear in the Harry Potter Studios tour.  

The Monster Book of Monsters makes a brief appearance in this movie

 

Gringotts Wizarding Bank is another aspect of the Studio tour.  Gringotts plays a large role in this movie when Ron, Harry, and Hermione break into Bellatrix Lestrange's vault to steal a horcrux.  

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 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.
