👍 I really liked Knockturn Alley and wish I could have given a 5/5. What annoyed me is that I wish that there would have been at least two shops, but there is only one.

People often mention Alley, Harry, Potter, dark, Knockturn, wand, great,

    I really liked Knockturn Alley and wish I could have given a 5/5. What annoyed me is that I wish that there would have been at least two shops, but there is only one. It's still nice, but it is supposed to be a full alley and I don't think that it is supposed to be so small from what we know from the movies/books. But still, it was very nice and it is worth a look around. The place is a bit cooler than the rest of the park, which in nice on hot days. There is a ceiling that looks a little bit like a night sky. There are a couple of interactive wand spots and, of course, Borgin and Burkes. It is surprisingly dark which makes for a great immersion. The decoration and details are very nice. The ambiance was great and felt pretty authentic.

    Borgin and Burkes is a gift shop down Knockturn Alley at Diagon Alley. It is a scary dark store decorated with skulls. You have to enter Knockturn Alley to find it - but it’s not to be missed!

    TIP: Home of the best shop in the Diagonal Alley area, Borgin & Burkes. Do not miss! It's Beautiful. Also because it's easy to miss for non-HP lovers, this part is much less crowded.

    If you love Harry Potter you will love this location. It is dark and creepy and exactly how you would expect. You can even shop for some dark wizard or death eater merchandise. There is also a couple of spots where you can use your interactive wand.

    The experience in here is so cool. And it’s also very well air conditioned. A nice place to hide from the heat. There are a few wand experiences in here as well. The shopping is great too. Keep an eye out for the wanted posters and the shrunken heads too. So much fun for the kids.

    Love Knockturn Alley! Do NOT sit down on the crates conveniently located opposite the dancing skeleton. I was told that there is sensitive equipment in there. (See photo)

    Knockturn Alley is located inside of Diagon Alley in the Wizarding World at Universal Studios. It is easy to miss and people often do because it is tucked away in the corner, and down a dark alley (as it should be!) If you've managed to bring your magical wand along for your trip, there's plenty of spells to cast down here. There's also one of the best shops in the Wizarding World filled with merch you may not find anywhere else. Especially perfect for the Slytherins in your party.

    This is one of my favorite portions of the Wizarding World of Harry Potter in Universal Studios Florida. The attention to detail is absolutely amazing and really makes you feel immersed in the Harry Potter books. If you have a chance, you should walk through it multiple times - there is something new to discover each time.

    Wow, you gotta check out the gift shop at Knockturn Alley. It's also a great place to cool off because it has AC and is very dark

    Not a big place but if your kid has a wand they can try a spell or two while in the alley.👍
