Harry Potter Park Pleases JK Rowling
If you’re in love with Harry Potter like everyone else in this country, start making your summer 2009 vacation plans early. There’s a new attraction coming to Orlando, Florida and you won’t want to miss it.
Universal Studios Orlando Theme Park plays host to “The Wizarding World Of Harry Potter.” The exhibit will feature famous locations from the best-selling novels such as the snow-covered village of Hogsmeade, Hogwarts Castle, and shops selling cauldrons, brooms and wands.
JK Rowling is psyched about the project. She has seen the plans for the park, and can’t wait to see them come to life. And come to life they will. Universal is pulling out all the stops to make it a memorable experience for visitors.
For instance, Oscar-nominated production designer Stuart Craig who has worked on the Harry Potter movies heads the billion-dollar project, which starts construction within weeks. "Our primary goal is to make sure this experience is an authentic extension of Harry Potter's world as it is portrayed in the books and films."
With only 2 years to wait, Harry Potter fans will be delighted to experience first-hand the magic of their favorite books.
