Here is the main entrance to the grounds from the castle, the Courtyard. Many students go there to socialize, play Gobstones, or just do homework. Outside of the Courtyard is the Stone Circle, where there are some low rising stones to sit on.

On the western side of the grounds, we find the Lake. In warmer weather, students come down in bathing suits and take a swim. Sometimes little pieces of a house wash ashore, though nobody can explain why. Greenhouse Three is also on the western lawn.

London is the center of the wizarding world. It homes Diagon Alley, the most famous wizard shopping place of England, as well as Knockturn Alley, which is usually filled with Dark wizards. The Ministry of Magic ruins lay here as well.

| hogsmeade.
Hogsmeade, the shopping village, has some of the best shops. Honeyduke's Sweetshop makes some of the best candy in England while the Three Broomsticks serves up a mean cup of butterbeer. The Hog's Head is usually full of drunk older men. Madam Puddifoot's is a nice little tea place. Dervish and Banges will repair and sell magical equipment while Zonko's Joke Shop is the best place for all your pranking needs. Asher's Animals has a great variety of animals and things they need for you to choose from.

| little hangleton.
Little Hangleton is a very small village out in the country. The Hanging Man is the village's pub, where the few wizards that live there can get a drink. Riddle Manor still overlooks the town, though no Riddle is alive anymore. Voldemort's body lies in the upstairs study where he was killed, magically preserved to keep from rotting.
| 0 | 0 | |
| godric's hollow.
The town of Godric's Hollow is famous for being the location where Voldemort met his first downfall. The Potter Cottage still lies in ruins, a reminder of how Tom Marvolo Riddle took the lives of a baby boy's parents. The graveyard holds the graves of many wizard families, most of which Voldemort killed. Bathilda Bagshot's home is also here, though nobody really goes there.
