Potterheads, if you're in Japan, don't miss this place! 🪄🏰

🪄Today, I'd like to invite everyone to experience the magical world of Harry Potter in Tokyo with a visit to Warner Bros. Studio Tour Tokyo – The Making of Harry Potter, a must-see for Potterheads.

🌟 We begin with a storytelling tour of all the films, complete with posters and behind-the-scenes footage, which really evokes a sense of immersion. Walking through the large doors into Hogwarts' "Great Hall," the long dining tables of all four houses make you feel like you're really there. There's a moving staircase, a living room, the Headmaster's office, and the Potions classroom. Then, we head into the Forbidden Forest, where we stop for a cold Butterbeer. Then, we continue on to Diagon Alley, the Wizarding World's shopping district, filled with shops and magical items. You'll be standing there, literally, in the scenes you saw on the screen.

🚂Next, we'll take the "Hogwarts Express" at Platform 9¾, where you can take photos with the train. We'll also take a full-scale tour of the "Ministry of Magic," featuring behind-the-scenes footage from the films, including costumes, magical weapons, and special effects. It's a must-see for photography enthusiasts. Or if you'd like to experience the atmosphere of being transported to that world, it's a lot of fun!

📝 Tips & Tricks
• It's recommended to book tickets in advance, as they can fill up quickly during holidays and peak seasons.
• Spend at least 3–4 hours here to thoroughly explore all zones. (If you're really into it, it might take longer.)

• Easy access: Toshimaen Station on the Seibu Ikebukuro/Toei Oedo Line is very close to major stations like Ikebukuro, taking about 15–20 minutes.

• Weekday mornings tend to be less crowded, so if you want to take photos without a lot of people holding cameras, this is the perfect time.

• Don't forget to stop by the nearby cafes/cafés. They offer magical-themed treats like Butterbeer and special souvenirs (though they can be quite expensive).
