Harry Potter Magic World Tour Arrives in China for the First Time

The Hogwarts Express is presented at the Harry Potter Magic World Tour in Shanghai, December 6, 2015. The Harry Potter Magic World Tour has arrived in China for the first time.

The show was first launched in 2009, and has already travelled to cities such as New York, Toronto, Sydney, Tokyo and Singapore.

This Harry Potter experience opened in Shanghai's Super Brand Mall over the weekend, with the Weasley brothers' actors James and Oliver Phelps given the honour of waving the wand to officially open the show.

The show has brought more than 1-thousand costumes, props and life-sized models to Shanghai, to recreate the original magic world of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

Visitors can walk through the Grand Hall of Hogwarts, Harry Potter's dormitory, the Quidditch playing field, and forest keeper Hagrid's wooden cabin, or take the opportunity to explore the dark magic and creatures in the forbidden forest.

The Shanghai tour also provides a special audio guide, with behind-the-scene stories being related by the film's producers, costume designers and magical creature designers.

The show runs till the end of February of next year.
