Platform 9 3/4
Hidden railway entrance
Platform 9 3/4 is the hidden railway platform at London's King's Cross station in the Harry Potter series, accessed by walking through the barrier between platforms 9 and 10.
From there, the Hogwarts Express departs for the wizarding school.
The fractional number suggests something existing between ordinary things—a secret world tucked into the gaps of the mundane one.
