I went on this ride at Universal Studios and I think the wait in line was more fun than the actual ride itself. This has the whole thing from start to finish, including all the fun things in line. See if you can recognize scenes and rooms from the book/movie!

Everyone is pretty much experiencing life through their devices as the coronavirus outbreak persists. If you had to cancel a Universal Studios trip and were particularly ecstatic about experiencing the Wizarding World of Harry Potter, you can do more than daydream about it: In the meantime, you can virtually go on a ride through Hogwarts castle from the comfort of your couch.

Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey is the must-experience ride inside of Hogwarts castle at Universal Studios. A video from UndercoverTourist.com takes you through the entire experience-even waiting in line, which is arguably one of the best parts. In line, you get to check out the halls of Hogwarts where you can listen to paintings talk and visit Dumbledore in his office. Before hopping on the ride, you also get to wander through the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom, the Room of Requirement, and the herbology classroom.

Once you're strapped in, you take a magical broomstick ride around Hogwarts as you're met with fire-breathing dragons, friendly faces (Ron, Hermione, and Hagrid, of course), and spiders in the Forbidden Forest. You finish the ride with a warm praise from Dumbledore and students in the Great Hall.

As Dumbledore once said: "Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light." This virtual ride is the light. It's a true pick-me-up that all Harry Potter lovers deserve right now.

You can virtually ride the rides at Disneyland and world!

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Though Disneyland and Disney World may be closed right now it doesn't mean you still can't experience the Most Magical Place on Earth. And it's all thanks to the internet.

One week ago, the Disney parks made the decision to close for the duration of the month of March out of an abundance of caution during the global coronavirus pandemic. This, of course, broke the hearts of many, especially during the spring break season.

However, for those still looking to take a ride on Space Mountain, there is a way: Virtual rides.

Though these are not officially sanctioned virtual tours, previous guests to the parks have taken it upon themselves to ensure everyone can still experience Disney magic by uploading their experiences on various rides.

That includes the Frozen Ever After ride, located in Epcot.

As well as a ride-along on the Pirates of the Caribbean ride in Disneyland.

Those sitting at home right now can also watch a thrilling journey on Peter Pan's Flying Ride at Disneyland.

Or take a heart-pumping ride on the Indiana Jones ride.

For a bit more chill of a ride, hop on the Alice in Wonderland caterpillars at Disneyland, too.

And, virtual guests can even take a ride under the sea on The Little Mermaid adventure.

But, no internet vacation to Disney would be complete without riding It's a Small World. Sorry, but you have to do it.

So yeah, this isn't exactly the same experience as you'd get in the park, but at least it can fill a little bit of the void and spark some wanderlust for when we can all visit the parks once more.

And if you need some more virtual activities you can always tour a museum, visit a national park, watch a broadway show, and even hang out with precious baby goats, too.

These virtual Disney rides will make your couch the happiest place on earth

Here are some more!

Many people have special remedies for when they cannot sleep. For some maybe it's warm milk (is that actually a thing?), for others, maybe it's meditation, but for me, oftentimes it's watching videos of Disney rides. I've only had the chance to go to Disney a few times in my life, but I love it, so watching video ride-throughs of some iconic attractions is a way for me to feel super zen. It's my happy place, if you will.

Jezebel writer Rich Juzwiak apparently shares my passion because he helpfully pointed out that these videos are actually super useful right now, as Disney World and Disneyland are closed through the end of the month due to the global coronavirus outbreak. Not only that, as many schools are closed, these video ride-throughs can be a great way to keep kids entertained.

You can find a video of pretty much any ride you want. While watching roller coasters is fun and all, as Rich pointed out, the dark rides will likely give you the best immersive experience, especially if you're looking for a super-serene video.

Some of my favorites include videos of the now dearly departed Great Movie Ride, Little Mermaid: Ariel's Undersea Adventure, and Peter Pan's Flight. For those who didn't get a chance to ride the new Mickey and Minnie ride in the few weeks it was open, it's already on there too.

This is also a great excuse to watch videos from other parks around the world too, including Hong Kong Disneyland's Mystic Manor (SO. COOL.) and Disneyland Paris's Ratatouille ride (which can give you a sense of what Disney World's new ride will look like!).

Seriously, search "Disney ride-through" on YouTube and just go to town. Oh, and if you were wondering, you can find videos of rides and attractions from all sorts of other theme parks too. Sometimes when I'm particularly homesick, I even watch ride-throughs from my hometown amusement park Kennywood. You name it, it's probably on YouTube.
