Diagon Alley is now open at
UNIVERSAL ORLANDO RESORTS in Florida
Do you have Harry Potter fans in your family? If so, a visit to Universal Orlando Resorts in Florida is a must-see!
Following
the mammoth success of The Wizarding World of Harry Potter - Hogsmeade,
Universal Orlando Resorts opened their new attraction “Diagon Alley” on July 8th, 2014.
Those who have read the
first of J.K. Rowling’s saga “Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone” may
remember that Diagon Alley is really
Harry’s first step into the magical world.
Universal’s brilliant design team have done an incredible job of re-creating
what J.K. Rowling describes in her popular novel - a sensory overload of the
bizarre, the quirky, and the whimsical.
Fans of the
films will love the detailed, incredible recreation of Diagon Alley and revel
in the experience of being part of it as the details spring at you from all
sides.
The
centerpiece of Diagon Alley is the thrill ride “Harry Potter and the Escape from Gringotts” which takes riders
on twists and turns through the bank’s vaults surrounded by Hollywood-quality footage
that was shot just for the ride. It has been called “a wonder of technological
achievement”.
Kids will
adore an innovative piece of interactive technology that Universal has
introduced, whereby guests can purchase interactive wands. With a flick of
their wrist they will soon discover that magic happens that brings the
Wizarding World to life!
Universal
has brilliantly linked the two Harry Potter attractions at its two parks with
the Hogwarts Express – a new ride
that runs between Hogsmeade and Diagon Alley, thrilling passengers with a video
ride through the English countryside past scenes and characters that Harry
Potter fans will recognize instantly!
