Review The Making of Harry Potter ✨Tokyo,Toshimaen

Today we will go to the magical world. Let me tell you that this program is a special request from me because I used to be a fan. Warner Bros. Studio Tour Tokyo – The Making of Harry Potter has just opened not long ago. It is located in Toshimaen district. It is not too far from Ikebukuro by train. However, be careful not to get on the wrong train because some trains do not pass through the platform. You have to look at the signs and the time. When you get to the station, you will know right away whether you are on the right or wrong one. The station is only red. There is a small train for taking pictures, a telephone booth, and various props. When you walk out of the station, you will pass a garden and cross a bridge. Then you will see it. The trees have turned a beautiful yellow. I am so excited. For booking tickets, you can book directly through the Official Website or through various agents. If you plan to go, you have to book in advance. If you book at the last minute, it will be sold out. There are no tickets for sale here. You have to book in advance and you have to enter at the specified time. When you go inside, you will see the Hungarian dragon, the one Harry fought in the Goblet of Fire. It is big and magnificent. It is hanging from the roof to welcome us. And on the left hand side, there is a counter for people who want to rent a Guide Book. The rental fee is 1,300 yen (I recommend not renting. Just walking in is not enough to capture the atmosphere. There is no time to listen to this machine. It is a waste of time.) When you enter, you will see a panoramic screen. The atmosphere inside the movie reminds you of your childhood. On the right hand side, there is a cafeteria. If you are hungry, come and eat here before the tour starts. It takes a long time to walk in and there are a lot of people waiting in line. On the left hand side, there is a large shop. There are all kinds of products for sale. But what I saw that people like the most are the robes and magic wands. After buying them, you can change into your clothes and go in. They also have a room for changing and a place to store your bags. The best-selling house is definitely the Gryffindor house. The tour starts with a video from the Japanese voice actor of Harry Potter. He will introduce and tell you how to enter. Then, you will be asked to sit and watch the movie on a giant screen with the lead actors, Daniel, Rupert, and Emma, ​​who will come to greet you. There will also be the legendary J.K. Rowling giving a speech before the screen moves up. It appears as the school canteen door that Rate will see familiarly in the movie. When we enter, we will see tables and chairs, a simulation of the Hogwarts school canteen, just like the real thing. In the next room, we will see the entrance to the school's various dormitories. The stairs can be changed alternately like in the movie. At this point, we can play with moving photos. Before taking photos, we have to register for the studio's app first, so that the photos and videos we take in there can be downloaded when we come out through the QR code. There are many things to play inside. I don't want to spoil it too much. Let's just say that if there is something to play, play it. It's fun. For example, this is a simulation of us riding a broom. They will take our bodies to edit in scene 1 of the movie. We can buy files and images. This one has a package of 2 printed photos and a video file, all images, for 6,000 yen. If you walk to the Hogwarts train here, you are halfway to the studio. At this point, it is the familiar ¾ platform in the movie. You can walk up and look at the train. And outside, there is also the Knight Bus, which is in Part 3. When we walk out, we will see Hagrid's hut. At this point, we can stop and take pictures. There is also Ron's flying car from Part 2 here, but there are a lot of people waiting in line. We are too tired to wait. We walked to the restaurant and cafe, bought a bento for 2,350 yen and a Butter Beer + Popcorn set for 1,700 yen. If anyone wants to eat cakes and sweets, I recommend eating before going in. There are a lot of people waiting in line inside. We really can't wait. Next outside, we found the Dursley family's house, the house where our Harry Potter has lived since he was a child. Inside, there is a simulation of the events in Part 1 and Part 3. When we saw Harry's bedroom, it was really small. How could he live there? Let's walk further. We will see the behind-the-scenes of the movie production. There are clothes, scenes, CG, Sound Effect, and simulation of the robots used in filming. If anyone has time, you can walk around and read the information. As for us, we will just walk past because our legs are sore now. We have been in here for 4 hours. We are near the exit now. This is Diagon Alley. There is a prominent Fred and George toy shop. When you exit, you will come out at the Shop. Stop by to buy souvenirs before going back again. We can spend the whole day here if we have time. For us, we stayed here for about 5 hours. ❤️ For those who are Harry Potter fans like us, we guarantee that you will be satisfied, happy, and fulfilled with your dreams and childhood memories. #harrypotter #Japan #TravelJapanByYourself #TravelJapan #tripgiveawayfreeaccommodation
