Hogsmeade

Founded by Hengist of Woodcroft, Hogsmeade is located near the Hogwarts castle and is home to several popular shops. Once one of the only all-wizarding villages in Britain, Hogsmeade is a popular location for the students of Hogwarts for weekend trips and school holidays. The students allowed here are required to be at least third years and granted permission by their guardians, though there are a few secret passages that lead into Hogsmeade and a few students daring enough to attempt them. One such passageway leads through the Shrieking Shack, which sits on the outskirts of Hogsmeade and is rumored to be haunted.

The more frequented locations of Hogsmeade include The Three Broomsticks, Honeydukes, The Hog's Head, Gladrags, and Madame Puddifoot's, as well as several more thriving locations.
