Winterfell:

I especially like the atmosphere of Hogwarts.  A school just for the
instruction of magic has always fascinated me.  The teaching of such
subjects as DADA and Herbology and Transfiguration is an amazing
concept in and of itself.  Also, Hogwarts became much more than a
school setting for Harry.  It was a place where he was good at
somethings, not so good at others, but where he had friends and felt
that he actually belonged somewhere special.  It was a place where he
could visit Hagrid with Ron and Hermione and enjoy the community of
his house common room. Other than the Weasleys home, Hogwarts was a
setting vividly described by JKR that made me want to go there.  I
felt at home there too.

So, for me, what I liked the most I think about Harry Potter was the
setting of Hogwarts. I wished I could have had a place like that to
go and learn magic.
