Just as Hagrid carried Harry to the Muggle world on a flying motorbike, now the gentle giant whisks him away, first by boat, then by underground rail to Diagon Alley in central London. Transportation vehicles, particularly trains, become important symbols running throughout the series. The Hogwarts Express, the train that Harry will soon ride to Hogwarts for the first time, is the means that continually shuttles him back-and-forth between the Magical and Muggle worlds, at least until he is an adult. It is rarely a smooth ride between these two realms. Other magically enhanced vehicles will come to represent Harry's escape from danger or turmoil, as well as his overall journey through the series.
 
We,The parallel Wizarding society that we and Harry, are introduced to the parallel Wizarding society that seems to share more similarities than differences with the Muggle world Harry is about to leave behind. It soon becomes apparent that magicMagic alone is apparently inadequate to provide for all Wizards' needs, and they therefore have their own highly-organized commerce and social infrastructure that includes a bank, retail shops, government, penal system, mass media, an educational institution, and so on. Wizards actually seem to function much as Muggles—they have jobs to earn a living, buy what they need from stores, marry and raise families, and celebrate the same traditions and holidays, such as Christmas, Hallowe'en, Easter, etc. Harry quickly encounters a more negative similarity, however, when he meets Draco Malfoy, the snobbish boy in the shop, who soon becomes Harry's primary nemesis, just as Dudley is in the Muggle world, and who represents the deep class divisions and prejudices within Wizard society; this becomes a major theme in the series. Even Draco's name portends this unpleasant relationship: Draco is, of course, Latin for "dragon" and Malfoy can loosely be translated as "bad faith" in French. What is quite different from Muggles, apart from magic, is the mythic beings inhabiting this clandestine world. Here we meet Goblins, and hear about Phoenixes, Dragons, Unicorns, Hags, and Vampires. This is our first intimation that these mythological creatures may have a real, parallel existence.
 
Wizards have secretly co-existed alongside the Muggle world for centuries. To reflect this side-by-side (and also intersecting) existence with humans, the author has cleverly named the Wizard business district Diagon Alley (diagonally). Its seedy, dark underbelly is [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Places/Knockturn Alley|Knockturn Alley]] (nocturnally), where many Dark Wizards ply their trade or otherwise engage in unsavory or illegal activities. These dark and light areas come to represent themes of good and evil that permeate the series.

Harry remains curious regarding what Hagrid removed from vault #713. While it is unknown yet what the packet contains, there are clues that it must be valuable. Hagrid's behavior suggests this, with the deliberate care and secrecy he shows when retrieving the package, and by his asking Harry to mention nothing about what he has seen. Also, there being nothing else inside except the packet indicates that it is probably a high-security vault protecting only that one item. Storing nothing else in it prevents anyone from having a reason, other than this particular object, to access the vault. Any break-in attempt would reveal what a thief was after.
 
As Harry learns about the Wizard world, so too does he discover more about his parents, his own past, and his relationship to Voldemort. Harry's wand plays an integral part in this relationship. A wand is a Wizard's most important possession, without it, it is nearly impossible to perform magic. Ollivander tells Harry that the wand chooses the Wizard, and a unique bond is indeed created between it and its owner; this ability to choose the Wizard indicates wands may be somewhat sentient. And while Harry's wand heralds his entry into the Wizarding world, its being related to the Dark Lord makes Harry uneasy. Not only does it tie him to his enemy, it may foreshadow his destiny with him. That it was Voldemort's wand that gave Harry his scar and killed his mother and father, further connects him to the Dark Lord and his parents. It also represents the dark, sinister side to what had initially seemed to readers like a magical paradise; the Wizard world actually may be far more dangerous than the unhappy Muggle one Harry hasis leftleaving behind. And while Ollivander may see the connection between the two wands as an indication that Harry will be a great Wizard, Harry is disturbed that he could share even a small similarity to a Wizard universally regarded as evil, further evidence of Harry's admirable character. Eventually, Harry learns that the magical core within his wand has a provenance that becomes vitally important in [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Goblet of Fire|''Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire'']] and in [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Deathly Hallows|''Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows'']].
