Harry Potter's Muggle-Friendly Luxury Apartment
Do you fantasize about going through the wall of the platform 9 and ¾ without getting a bump in the process? do you dream of eating chocolate frogs in the cars of Hogwarts Express ? Or eat under the floating candles of the Big dining room ?
If you answered yes to the previous questions, pay attention because your next destination is in this magical apartment located in the historic center of Edinburgh , the city where the story of the Boy Who Survived was born.
The corridors are full of paintings like those that hang in Howgarts (although these are not so 'alive')
Apartment owner and Harry Potter fan Yue Gao , she spent seven months traveling the world collecting furniture and objects until she turned this flat into a completely themed place.
Besides the obvious (it looks like you've dived headfirst into the world's most famous School of Witchcraft and Wizardry), the apartment is unique for a number of reasons, Yue says. “First of all, it is located in a historic building called Morocco's Land . Second, the views. From the main room and the living room you can see the Royal Mile ; and from the kitchen and the second bedroom the Carlton Hill ”.

The Main bedroom , tinted with red and gold and with the roof dotted with floating candles , is inspired by the gryffindor tower ; while the second bedroom is inspired by the wagons of the Hogwarts Express.
The living room , with a wood stove, velvet curtains and leather armchairs, is decorated in the style of the Gryffindor common room and on the corridor walls hang portraits inspired by the wizard's adventures (some say they move). In addition, each of the doors is painted in the colors of the Hogwarts houses.

"It's completely unique. Canontage Luxury Apartment pays tribute to the legendary characters of the saga and the talent of J.K. Rowling , who used her imagination to enrich the spiritual experience of an entire generation around the world ”comments the owner.
There are even two pieces of furniture (a mirror and a desk) that once belonged to J.K. Rowling. And in the absence of magic, the apartment comes equipped with a kitchen, televisions, Wi-Fi and even a game console.
