Bodleian Library

The Bodleian Library is one of the most amazing places to visit in Oxford, seen in both "A Discovery of Witches" and "Harry Potter" it's a library whose magic is all its own. Mentioned numerous times throughout the All Souls Trilogy, and seen in "A Discovery of Witches" (sadly we cannot access the Selden End of the Library, which is seen in "A Discovery of Witches" but this should not deter visitors as the rest of the Library is still a sight to behold!) visiting the library is full of all the quaint charm and scholarly stiffness that you would expect from the book and TV series.
