My visit to Legoland, Malaysia

by Rohan Kapur | 13-06-2013 00:36 recommendations 0

Last Dec I visited Lego land in Malaysia. I wish to share some good memories by way of pictures & some facts about this unique park in Asia.

 LEGOLAND? has a 44 year heritage. The first Park opened in Denmark (1968). Over the years, LEGOLAND? has successfully opened in various locations around the world: United Kingdom (1996), California (1999), Germany (2002) and Florida (2011).

15 September 2012 marks the public opening of the first LEGOLAND? in Asia and the sixth in the world. It was opened in Malaysia.

There are more than  15,000 LEGO? models throughout the Park. They are created out of 50 million LEGO bricks.

LEGOLAND? Malaysia has seven themed areas covering 76 acres - the same area as 50 full-size football pitches.

The LEGOLAND? experience starts at The Beginning, the entrance area to the Park and home to the largest LEGO? shop in Asia, The Big Shop. It stocks 2,000 different LEGO and LEGOLAND products, and has more LEGO toy sets under one roof than anywhere else in the region. At The Brick Shop, LEGO fans can customise their own creations with hundreds of LEGO elements and accessories.

Designed for LEGO? fans of all ages, Imagination is where creativity knows no bounds. At the Build and Test Centre, LEGO inventors can bring their imaginations to life. The Kid?s Power Tower challenges everyone to prove their strength by hauling themselves upwards to gain a beautiful view over the Park, and young engine drivers can enjoy a gentle train journey on the life-size DUPLO? Express.

LEGO? Technic is home to high speed rides for the brave and exciting LEGO? workshops for aspiring designers.

The highlight is taking a test drive on Project X, a wild roller coaster with a steep switchback track. Aquazone Wave Racers offers a thrilling wave surf where those watching can trigger water bursts to splash the riders. Children wanting to dry off can then head to LEGO? Mindstorms, which encourages budding robot designers to build the future.

At the centre of the Park, the miniature world of Miniland recreates famous Asian landmarks on a scale of 1:20 using more than 30 million LEGO? bricks. It turns children into giants as they stroll through famous scenes from different countries, including the Petronas Twin Towers, the Merlion Statue and the Taj Mahal. Some of the LEGO models are animated, so visitors can bring LEGO figures, trains and aeroplanes to life at the touch of a button. Malaysia?s is the largest Miniland ever built for a new LEGOLAND? Park. The project took more than three years to complete.
