Attention, 'Harry Potter' fans! J.K. Rowling reveals names of wizarding schools across the globe

OS ANGELES: " Harry Potter" author J.K. Rowling has revealed the name of the wizarding schools in several locations from around the world.

As seen on a map shared on Rowling's Facebook page, the wizarding school in North America is called Ilvermorny and is located on the north-eastern part of North America.

In South America, the school is called Castelobruxo. The school in Africa is Uagadou, which is the largest of all wizarding schools, and wizards in Asia go to Mahoutokoro wizarding school, reported Ace Showbiz.

The author noted on Pottermore.com that "as a general rule, magical schools tend to be situated in landlocked, mountainous areas (although there are notable exceptions, as will be seen), as such regions are difficult for Muggles to access, and easier to defend from Dark wizards."

She added, "The precise location of each of the following schools is a closely guarded secret."
