In 2007, the Harry Potter books pleased the enthusiastic readers of one of the most popular sagas in the world for the last time. But the adventures of the wizarding world did not end there.

In addition to movies and books, the topic of witchcraft has spread throughout the world. 12 places that every Harry Potter fan must visit will not leave you indifferent.
12 places every Harry Potter fan must visit:

Lockhart – Toronto
For Harry Potter fans of legal age, the theme bar Lockhart in Canada is the place to party. The bar is fully kitted out with Harry Potter themed equipment and cocktails are named after spells, characters and magical creatures. The bravest can try a cocktail called the Death Eater.
