對於很多人來說，哈利波特系列電影是最難忘的回憶之一，因為它曾在無數孩子的心中，開啟一扇通往魔法世界的大門，幾乎每個孩子都曾經幻想過，自己是否也擁有某種特別的能力，能夠進入另一個神奇的世界，而電影中的九又四分之三月台、魁地奇球賽或巨型西洋棋陣等事物，都是讓人難以想像，但又令人嚮往的。
說實話，我並沒有看完整套哈利波特系列電影，但是，哈利波特系列電影也算是伴隨著我的成長，是和我同世代的共同記憶，雖然我沒有機會去環球影城，一探影城內的哈利波特園區，還好這裡有個哈利波特專賣店，可以讓我也有機會可以買到哈利波特周邊商品，我本來以為這家店應該很醒目，很容易找到，沒想到，我繞了一大圈，才發現店原來就在我一開始進去商場的地方，是店的裝潢太低調了，還是我被施了魔法，才會視而不見呢？
一進入店內，就會發現兩側掛著葛來分多、史萊哲林、雷文克勞及赫夫帕夫等四個學院的魔法師袍、外套、背包及圍巾，好像只要穿上魔法師袍，拿著魔杖，就能騎著掃帚在天空中飛行，內部空間不大的店內，還有一座經典的九又四分之三月台場景，應該是知名打卡點，不過，店內的每一處都充滿魔法感，像是貨架上的各種奇獸的娃娃和公仔，魔杖是我認為最值得收藏的東西之一，每一款魔杖都做得十分細膩，有的魔杖有按鈕，一按就發光，有的魔杖有磁吸功能，可以吸附在冰箱或是任何帶有磁性的地方，作為一件特別的裝飾物，還好我去的時候，店內的客人不多，我才能隨意把玩店內的商品，聽說一開始開店時，要入場還要預約，一個人只能在店內停留五十分鐘，還好熱潮已經過了。
雖然哈利波特的冒險故事在很久以前，就已經完結了，不過，哈利波特所帶來的想像力與感動，就在我踏入店內後，被喚起了，有點像是一封永遠不會消失的霍格華茲入學通知書，藏在記憶深處，一旦被觸發之後，令人回味無窮。
For many people, the Harry Potter movies are among their most unforgettable childhood memories. They opened a door to a magical world for countless kids. After all, almost every child has imagined having some special power and being able to enter a mysterious world of magic. Things like Platform 9¾, Quidditch matches, and the giant wizard chessboard were hard to imagine in real life, yet incredibly fascinating and inspiring.
To be honest, I never watched the entire Harry Potter film series from beginning to end. Even so, the movies were still a part of my childhood and a shared memory for many people of my generation. Although I've never had the chance to visit the Harry Potter area at Universal Studios, I was happy to discover a Harry Potter specialty store where I could finally check out some official merchandise. I thought the store would be easy to spot, but surprisingly, I walked around the mall for quite a while before finding it. As it turned out, the store was right near the entrance where I first came in. Was the decoration too subtle, or had someone cast a spell on me that made me overlook it?
As soon as I stepped inside, I saw wizard robes, jackets, backpacks, and scarves from the four Hogwarts houses, Gryffindor, Slytherin, Ravenclaw, and Hufflepuff, hanging on both sides of the store. It almost felt like if I put on a robe and grabbed a wand, I could hop on a broomstick and fly through the sky. The shop itself wasn't very large, but it featured a classic Platform 9¾ display that was clearly a popular photo spot.
Every corner of the store felt magical. The shelves were filled with plush toys and figures of various magical creatures. Personally, I think the wands are some of the most collectible items. Each one is beautifully crafted. Some have buttons that make them light up, while others have magnetic features, allowing them to stick to a refrigerator or any metal surface as a unique decoration.
Luckily, there weren't many customers when I visited, so I was able to browse and play around with the products at my own pace. I heard that when the store first opened, visitors had to make reservations in advance, and each person was only allowed to stay for fifty minutes. Thankfully, the initial craze has already passed.
Although Harry Potter's adventure ended many years ago, the imagination and emotions the series brought to people came rushing back the moment I stepped into the store. It felt like a Hogwarts acceptance letter that never truly disappears—hidden deep within my memories, waiting to be rediscovered. And once those memories are awakened, they leave you with a wonderful sense of nostalgia that lingers long after you leave.
