Film Sets at the Studio
During your visit to the Warner Bros. Studio in Tokyo, you can see the following film sets used in the Harry Potter films:
The Great Hall of Hogwarts
Inspired by a 16th-century room in Christ Church at Oxford University, the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry's Great Dining Hall is where all the big events take place. From the Sorting Hat house allocation to the Yule Ball, everything happens in this room.
On your visit to the Great Dining Hall, you'll be able to see the figures of the snake, the badger, the lion and the eagle up close, all representing the four houses of Hogwarts. You'll also see the Point Counter for each house: Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw and Slytherin.
