Harry Potter in London
Other Harry Potter locations in London
Australia House, the British Museum area, and other spots fans look up — what is worth a detour.
Beyond the trolley and the bridge, London has extras: government buildings used as exteriors, streets used for a few seconds of film. Some are worth a 10-minute look. Some are a waste of a Zone 1 day.
Use a walking tour if you want the stories. Use a map if you only want two photos.
Worth a detour
Places you would visit anyway (museums, the City). The Harry Potter layer is a bonus.
Skip if rushed
A doorway used for three seconds of film. Your feet have a budget.
Why we do not list fifty pins
A fifty-stop map is how you see none of London. Pick a handful.
