The dungeon passages and rooms under the castle have stone walls and are lit by torches. Potions classes are held in a dungeon classroom, large enough to hold at last twenty students, their cauldrons, and their work tables. The Hogwarts kitchens are located directly below the Great Hall and are just the same size. To get to the kitchens, take the door to the right of the main staircase in the entrance hall. Follow the corridor until you come to a painting of a bowl of fruit. Tickle the pear and it giggles and becomes a door handle.
