Whether it is Hogwarts, Diagon Alley, or beyond, looking at the different places in the Harry Potter series is what makes this world so fun to explore in the first place.

We all know that when we think about Harry Potter as a series, we think about Hogwarts. And for fine reason, Hogwarts is always going to be there to welcome us home. But also there is something beautiful about the series and the world that it lives in.

While Hogwarts is probably my favorite, there is something beautiful about Diagon Alley and even Knockturn Alley. Maybe because it creates this magical world that we get to explore and love but it is truly a magical time to look at all of Harry’s world.

So why then do we focus on Hogwarts so much? I think maybe it is because for us, as fans, Hogwarts was the place that Harry finally felt like he belonged so we, as we read, got to explore it the most. If we had the chance to go to Hogwarts, we would without another thought.

That being said, I don’t necessarily think I would go anywhere else in the wizarding world as willingly as I would go to Hogwarts. It is the place that means the most to so many of us just because it is home. We know Hogwarts and we love it like it was our own school.

I’d go to Diagon Alley, I’d go to the Quidditch World Cup but at the end of the day, I think that I’d personally love to always be able to go back home to Hogwarts at the end of the day.
