In the Japanese city of Osaka, a new set of attractions dedicated to the hero of the books Joan Rowling Harry Potter began work. More than 3 thousand people were on duty all night at the entrance to the park to get there first.
The Wizarding World of Harry Potter is located within the Universal Studios Japan theme park.
Visitors to the "Wizarding World of Harry Potter" are waiting for the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, which created computerized attractions, the village of Hogsmeade and other gaming areas. The simulator, which creates the complete illusion of flying on a broomstick, immediately became especially popular.
Universal Studios Japan spent more than $ 445.5 million on the creation of this attraction complex. The company believes that due to the popularity of Harry Potter, the number of people attending a theme park in Osaka will increase to 12 million people a year.
Tickets for Universal Studios Japan theme park for one day are 6,980 yen ($ 68) for adults and 4,880 yen ($ 48) for children, including taxes.
