Hogsmeade
Hogsmeade is the only village in Britain inhabited exclusively by wizards and witches. Hengist of Woodcraft built the village a thousand years ago in the shadow of a large, rocky mountain to hide from the Muggles who had persecuted him. The village consists of a High Street lined with thatched-roofed shops, surrounded by streets of cottages which become further apart away from the main village. As the only non-Muggle community, Hogsmeade has played a pivotal role in wizarding history in the country. It attracts all sorts of magical beings like ogres and hags, who wouldn't blend in well in Muggle areas. Goblins plotted a rebellion in one of its inns in 1612, and many other fateful meetings have taken place in the village during Harry Potter's years at Hogwarts thus far. Hogsmeade is not far from the school (about a thirty minutes' walk, or twice as much if the journey is made through one of the two secret passages connecting it to the school). Hogwarts students in their third year on can visit the village four times a year; one Saturday in each season with a signed permission form.
