 | A tiny, grubby pub and inn on Charing Cross Road, a book shop on one side and a record shop on the other. It is invisible to muggles and is dark and shabby inside. A corridor leads from the bar to the private back parlor, sometimes used for dining. There is a small, weed-infested courtyard behind the pub that is the hiding place for the entrance to Diagon Alley. A narrow staircase leads to the Leaky Cauldron's guest rooms, and they are tended to by the innkeeper, Tom, who is stooping, bald, and toothless, and resembles a "gummy walnut".

| Diagon Alley is in the heart of London, and is accessed through the walled courtyard behind the Leaky Cauldron. Tapping the third brick from the left aboce the dustbin with your wand will cause the bricks to rearrange themselves and create a temporary archway to a long, twisting cobblestone street full of different Wizarding Shops.

| | The shelves of this huge bookstore are stacked to the ceiling with leather-bound books as large as paving stones, silk-covered books the size of postage stamps, invisible books, biting books, books full of bizarre symbols, and books with nothing in them at all. You can get anything here, including the books needed for a new term at Hogwarts.

| | A noisy, smelly shop that is crammed full of cages, baskets, and tanks holding a wide range of creatures; giant purple toads, black rats, an enormous tortoise with a jewel-covered shell, poisonous orange snails, ravens, a rabbit that changes into a top hat, double-ended newts, strange custard-colored huming furballs, and cats of every color.

| | A little shabby, Ollivander's had peeling golden letters on its door and a single wand on a purple cushion in the window. It is tiny, dusty, and silent inside, making it feel like a very strict library. There are thousands of narrow wand boxes piled neatly up to the ceiling, and the shop seems to tingle with magic. Ollivander himself is a soft-spoken elderly wizard with wide, pale, silvery eyes and long fingers, along with a slightly creepy air about him. He can remember every single wand he has ever sold.

| Hogsmeade is the only all-wizard settlement in Britian, and had a lot of interesting shops where strange magical beings can occasionally be found. In winter, it looks like the scenes you see on Christmas cards, featuring snow-covered thatched cottages with wreaths on the doors and tres covered in enchanted candles. Hogsmeade is located at the foot of a mountain and is surrounded by wild countryside and winding lanes. The road to Hogsmeade is to the left on the way out of Hogwarts and curves around the Hogwarts lake.

| | Honeydukes is a favorite store of Hogwarts students. It features barrels and shelves crammed with all kinds of different sweets, both muggle and magical. A secret passage leads from Hogwarts to the Honeydukes' cellar. The married owners live upstairs from the shop.

| | Located on a hill on the outskirts of town, the Shrieking Shack has overgrown gardens and boarded-up windows. All the enterances are sealed shut. It is believed to be the the most haunted building in Britain, but the howling from within it has ceased and it has been quiet for many years.

| | A warm, clean, and popular pub. It has a large bar and very diverse patrons. The landy of the Three Broomsticks is Madam Rosmerta. She is pretty and curvacious, and wears turquoise high heels. Madam Rosmerta has been at the pub for quite some time and is on a friendly basis with everyone who passes through its doors, from magical beings to the Minister of Magic.
