A little alley, hidden away from the Muggle world. It is packed will all sorts of stuff: restaurants, pubs, shops, kiosks, and plenty of magical patrons. Hogwarts ensures that its students can get everything that they need there. It is picturesque with its cobblestone road and a nicely spookey Knockturn Alley attached to it. Really sets the mood for new magical folks. This month I will be exploring the benefits of different places in Diagon Alley and Knockturn Alley, seeing how they relate to some of our best Slytherins. Perhaps you should give it a thought or two as well!
