" See the Sorting Hat up close, try your hand at Quidditch, and play with Mandrakes in Herbology class\u2014you can do it all at Harry Potter: The Exhibit at Times Square&amp;#039;s The Discovery Museum! The exhibit, which runs through April 7, offers us regular muggles a rare peek into the magical world of Harry Potter. The exhibit starts with visitors being placed into houses by The Sorting Hat, and it only gets better from there. You walk through various rooms, recreated to look like key places from the movies, like Hagrid&amp;#039;s Hut, Harry and Ron&amp;#039;s Gryffindor dorm, The Great Hall, and Professor Snape&amp;#039;s Potions classroom. Each room is intricately decorated and filled with some of the actual props, like the wands, robes, and textbooks, used in the movies\u2014and you can even see some of the dirt left over on the clothes from filming! Seeing the original clothes was the best part, because it reminded you how young the actors were when they filmed the first movie\u2014Daniel Radcliff was 11 and Emma Watson was just 9! While most of the exhibit isn&amp;#039;t interactive, a few parts are, like getting to pot screaming mandrakes in Professor Sprout&amp;#039;s Herbology class, or trying your hand at tossing Quaffles through Quidditch goals. There are appearances from all your fave characters\u2014like Ron, Hermione, Luna Lovegood, Neville Longbottom, and Professor McGonagall\u2014through either pieces of their wardrobe or artifacts and props. You&amp;#039;ll even see the characters you love to hate, like Professor Snape, Dolores Umbridge, and of course, the Malfoys. Plus, the exhibit includes major Harry Potter destinations, like the Forbidden Forest, the Quidditch pitch, and The Hogwarts Express! This is one exhibit that&amp;#039;s definitely worth checking out. If you can&amp;#039;t make it to the New York location before it closes in a few weeks, don&amp;#039;t worry\u2014it&amp;#039;s on a world tour, stopping next in Tokyo.
