In the Movies: Popular Film Destinations
| June 2, 2017
6. London, England
Another European city that appears in movies often both as itself and as a stand in for somewhere else is London. There are so many filming locations in London that it’s hard to pick the most famous. Arguably, one of the most popular is King’s Cross Station’s Platform 9 ¾.
The Harry Potter landmark was so popular that station officials decided to add a small plaque marking the space between platforms 9 and 10. After people realized how popular it was, the small plaque was expanded to include a luggage trolley magically disappearing into the wall, and a store where you can buy Harry Potter merchandise. You can even arrange a photoshoot complete with a floating scarf and magic wand if you’re a hardcore fan.
