if you could visit hogwarts for one day,where would you go.

[dragon560]

I would probably go to one the class rooms because that where they go to do all there magic.

[Psychee]

I would go right up to Dumbledore's Office and refuse to leave until I learned what each of those delicate silver instruments did!

[Mollywobbles]

I would go to as many places as I could during the time allotted.  I'd start with the common rooms of all 4 Houses (we never did get to see the Hufflepuff common room), I'd visit the DADA classroom and the Potions classroom and the Room of Requirement.  Down to the kitchen to visit with the House Elves for a while, followed by lunch in the Great Hall.  Up to the Headmaster's office for a peek in the pensive and a chat with the Sorting Hat.  Down through Myrtle's bathroom for a look at the Chamber of Secrets, followed by a dip in the Prefect's tub.  Then, if I still had time, I'd want to see the herbology greenhouses and Hagrid's house.  I think I'd steer clear of the dark forest, although I'd kind of like a ride on a hippogriff or a thestral-kind of get the aerial view of the place.  Finally, before they kicked me out, I'd like to see the astronomy tower as the sun went down. 

I'd also like to see where McGonagall lives-I've always been curious about the private rooms of the teachers, but I may be too tired from climbing all those stairs! 

[ConnieAnnKirk]

Ooh. Another good topic question! 

Let's see, on my "tour" I'd ask to see:

* Dumbledore's office

* The Great Hall

* Hagrid's Hut

* Harry's chambers -- i.e. Gryffindor House Common Room and dorm rooms

* Library (including the "Restricted Section")!

* Owlery & the Tower (where DD, well, you know!)

* Potions classroom

* Room of Requirement (to make it anything I'd like!)

* Forbidden Forest!

* Room with the Mirror of Erised

I'm sure I'll think of other places!

That's what they should do in the theme park--just make a giant replica of Hogwarts castle and grounds and let people roam around!

[Alb_83]

Well, it's not easy.... There are a lot of places I'd like to visit:

• Library
• The Chamber of Secrets
• Room of Requirement  
• Severus Piton's potions classroom
• The Great Hall
• the Quidditch arena
• Prefects' bathroom
• Hogwarts' lake (a dive in the cold water after eating a gillyweed)
• Three Wizard Tournament's Labyrinth
• all the secret passages that Harry finds in the Marauders Map

is it possible to visit every single corner of the Castle? maybe with Dumbledore's time- turners!

[twilightfann]

Ooh, so many places I'd like to go...

• the library (restricted section first!)
• the Great Hall (hopefully pick up some good food while i'm there)
• prefect's bathroom
• Dumbledore's office !
• Greenhouse 3 (with all the interesting and slightly dangerous plants)
• Hagrid's hut (for some of Hagrid's treacle fudge to glue my mouth shut)
• Trelawney's Tower (maybe predict my impending demise...)
• Snape's Dungeon
• All the common rooms
• Chamber of Secrets
• the kitchens (but it wouldn't be the same without dobby..)
• have a quick fly around the quidditch field
• Hogsmeade to go to Honeydukes & The Three Broomsticks

I would go everywhere in Hogwarts! Yay!

[Lalo]

although I would like to visit all that you've all listed, I dont think a day would be enough so I'd spend my day in the headmasters office so I could spend the day talking to the portraits of DD & Snape.

[dayrenm]

Oh this is a great question. Hmm I would like to take a ride on the horseless carriages, then to the Great Hall, I would also like to visit the Common Room and the Quidditch field. I would love to visit each teachers office. Dumbledores office too. The kitchen would be a great place to find out more things that we didn't get to read about. Oh and the library, and the room of requirement. 

[Starlet]

hmmm.... that's definately hard.. I don't think I'd be able to choose! There are too many places I'd want to see.... but I would want to go to the Common Rooms, the Room of Requirement, Headmaster(or mistress)'s office, Hagrid's Hut, the Chamber of Secrets, and Quiddich field. and right after I post this I'll probably remember a million other places I want to go see

[Psychee]

A scuba dive in the Lake would be pretty cool as well!  I'd have to remember to bring a wetsuit as well, though, and figure out how to deal with all the Dark creatures without the use of a wand.

[mrsRW]

SCUBA DIVE IN THE LAKE???? Okay first of all I am TERRIFIED of the giant squid? OKAY??? But yeah it would be definitely fascinating to see the mermaids! I think they're the only harmless creature in the lake, did you guys ever realize that?

If I came to Hogwarts? Oh gosh.. I would definitely leave home around 8 am? Perhaps, I'll arrive at Hogwarts and roam the grounds first? First things first! Here's my list:

1: Visit Hagrid's house. I wonder what it feels like drinking tea from those giant mugs. I'll tell him how I love reading about him and Harry and the gang and Harid would have TOJ (Tears of joy) dripping from his eyes. He would give me a puch just like he gave Harry's! And would gladly refuse a rock cake.

2: Lunchtime: Oh gosh I'll visit the Great Hall!  it would be wonderful feeling so hungry and then seeing a great variety of foods appear magically in front of you! I'll try a bit of everything. And stare at the teachers ala Collin Creevey looking at HP! 

3. I'll try to penetrate the Ravenclaw house just for the fun of it! I'll talk to the door and see if I am smart enough to gain entrance! LOL! But regardless I'll be sleeping at my bunk at Gryffindor's !

[Psychee]

The Giant Squid just sounds menacing, MrsRW.  When the younger Creevey boy fell into the lake, though, the Squid put him back in the boat.   Sounds pretty tame to me!

[Sailem]

i would looove to visit the room of requirement...or the champer of secrets.

[Mollywobbles]

And weren't Fred & George tickling its tentacles one day when the squid was basking in the shallows of the lake?  I think I'd be more frightened of the Grindylows.

Can I visit Diagon Alley instead?  I'd really like to go to Ollivander's to get measured for a wand.  I'm thinking how much it might tickle to get my nostrils measured!  I'd love to visit every store there, but I'll skip Knockturn Alley!
