Related with Harry Potter, is there any possibility of seeing some locations corresponding to the film?
Any information about where to begin and where to finish the tryp will be of help.Thanks.

I couldn't find Track 6 3/4 at the train station. Perhaps it is there, but I couldn't find it.

There are tours that take you to the fictional sites as well as sites used for filming.

If you google "Harry Potter tour" you will get several tour operators who conduct tours of the sites used for the films. You don't have to take the tours. Most of them mention some of the sites on the tours and you can piece the info together.

Kings Cross station for where they catch the train to Hogwarts, The London Zoo reptile house, Oxford University, etc.

The Glenfinnan viaduct in the Scottish highlands will be recognizable to any HP fan who has seen the films. My daughter was absolutely thrilled.

Here's a pic...

Here are two sites I found. Lots of choices.

There's no platform 6 3/4.

There IS a platform 9 3/4. Or at least a sign for it, in the shed adjacent to the main Kings Cross station where the real-world platforms 9&10 are located.

To add to the confusion, the interior shots of the station were actually the real-world platform 4, in the main building. And the exterior shots are of the far more spectacular St Pancras station, next door.

Incidentally, there's long been a tradition that Boadicea (or Boudicca as it's now become fashionable to call her) was buried under Kings Cross platforms 9/10 after she was defeated by Suetonius Paulinus. No doubt she was a role model for Hermione.

Hogwarts is Alnwick castle

We saw the alleyway they used for the exterior to the Leaky Cauldron on one of the London walks we went on.

Hogwarts was Alnwick Castle, but only chiefly in the first movie. The school is an amalgamation of parts of Oxford, Gloucester Cathedral, Lacock Abbey and Alnwick (plus a bit of CGI).

Leadenhall Market right in London City is one. Then the is the dining hall at Christchurch college in Oxford. I believe that Edinburgh is the inspiration for much of the book and the books were started there (I think) so you might want to visit there.

Those are only the places I have been to. A whole bunch of places have the claim to fame.

Wooky hole in somerset was used in the Chamber of secrets too

In Edinburgh you can visit the coffee shop where J K Rowling did some of the writing. There was a story that the early drafts were written on napkins because she couldn't afford writing paper but that's probably just a myth.

If you are going out to Oxford the sixteenth century staircase at Christ Church at Oxford University was used in the first two Harry Potter films as the staircase leading to the Great Hall. The main Hall at Christ Church was also used as an inspiration for the Great Hall at Hogwarts.

You couldn't find track 6 3/4, You have to walk through the concrete pillar. If you couldn't do this you are probably a muggle.

bo you can get to platform 9 3/4. It used to be platform 9a but with all the fuss about the film they renamed it. But if you do want to run into concrete pillars then go for it.

They just put a plaque up outside the coffee shop where JK Rowling wrote.

Marialo, a trip to the King's Cross station, plus a visit to Oxford so see Christ Church and the Bodeleian are lots of fun for kids of a certain age. Oxford in general looks a little like the village of Hogsmeade is portrayed in the books.

For lunch, the Hobgoblin Pub in Oxford is a fitting place for your meal. If you don't want a tour, you can take the train to Oxford in the morning, see these sights (check first if they're open and at what times to the general public--the library was closed one day we tried to go because of exams!!), have lunch, and come back to London if that's where you are staying, in time for an evening entertainment. As I recall, it is about an hour by train to Oxford.

If you have time, there is a very strange little ---well, I hesitate to call it a ride, although you do get into a car on tracks---called the Oxford Experience. Again, it is geared towards school-age kids, isn't too expensive, and is another activity available in the town.

If the Hobgoblin is not open or no longer there, there is (or was a few years ago) an excellent Pizza Hut served by a cheerful waitstaff.

The coffee shop that Craigellachie mentioned in Edinburgh is at the corner of Nicolson & Drummond streets. JK Rowling used to sit there and write when she was poor and on welfare because the place was owned by her brother in law and they let her stay for hours just by buying one cup of coffee, and it saved her on heating her apartment. The restaurant is now a Chinese buffet above the Black Magic coffee shop, but back then it was called Nicolson's Restaurant.

Also, nearby in George Bridge is a cafe call the The Elephant Cafe which according to her unauthorized biography was another establishment she frequented.
