Harry Potter fans rejoice: Universal’s Island of Adventure is opening an unprecedented theme park in the spring of 2011 called the Wizarding World of Harry Potter.

People of all ages are likely to book flights to Orlando as soon as the park opens, but until then, you’ll have to survive on the few details that have been released. Just yesterday Paul Daurio said that the entrance to the park will be through the station of Hogsmeade, where students of Hogwarts go to shop on field trips.

The $200 million project will showcase three main attractions/rides, but the most engaging part of the park will simply be the scenery that have you walk through to get from one place to another. The shops, streets, and scenes will beckon art from the films, and even Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry will be life-like.

Stay tuned for more updates about the Wizarding World of Harry Potter.
