The Photo Guide to Platform 9 3/4 from Harry Potter in London

Platform 9 3/4 is probably the most famous train platform in the world. However the platform is fictional, created by J. K. Rowling.

The platform was mentioned in the first movie, when Harry, the Weasel family and lots of other wizard kids had to travel to Hogwarts by train. The train could only be accessed from a platform that couldn’t be seen from the normal platform so the kids needed to run through the wall with their trolleys.

The platform 9 3/4 is supposed to be between the 9th and 10th platform, but due to high traffic the authorities decided to place the sign just in the main hall of King’s Cross.

10 Wonderful PLACES To Visit This Winter (Europe Edition)

Winter is a great time for travelling. Not many people travel in winter and that brings so many benefits. Firstly, the places you’re visiting will be significantly less crowdy than in summer, which is a peak season in most of the destinations.

Since my last blog post about where to go in autumn has immense success, I decided to make a winter edition. This time, all these places are in Europe. If this blog post will be as successful as before, I will definitely make an US and Asia version too.

But firstly, I’ll tell you something about travelling in winter. It’s harder to pack for a trip in this (although magical) but crispy cold season. You will definitely need a coat or two in all of these destinations, as well as an umbrella and some warm tights.

Prague: 5 Most Magical Places

If you’ve ever been to Prague, you’ll know what to expect. Beautiful and picturesque architecture with a hint of borocco and gothic styles mixed together. Lots of tourists, boozy vacationers and beer that’s truly cheaper than water.

However, Prague isn’t just that. It’s much more than just Charles Bridge, astronomical clock or Wenceslas Square. There are many gardens and parks inside the city centre, which are totally touristless. There are stunning artistic memorials and other hidden gems in this central European city.
