Places where books are set.

I have been to Hyde Park, Illinois. That's where the Chasing Vermeer books take place. Except the last one. I've been to King's Cross Station, to see platform 9 3/4. I've been to Paddington Station and the Peter Pan statue in London. I don't think I've been to many other places where books take place, though. But, ya never know.
