Orlando

Central Florida's theme-park capital, where Universal has built Harry Potter into all three of its parks.

Orlando grew from a small inland city into the theme-park capital of the world after Walt Disney World opened in 1971. Universal Orlando, on the south-west side of the city, now has three parks, and Harry Potter is in all of them.
