Lego bricks are made from factory to finish. This zone is also the location of a two-story Grand Carousel by Chance, now with Lego-themed horses, and the Wells Fargo Fun Town Theater, a 700-seater 4D cinema where three different movies are shown throughout the day. Fun Town also features the Studio Store.
Miniland is the heart of all Legoland parks and at
Legoland Florida Miniland USA features Lego replica landmarks from Washington DC, New York City, Las Vegas and major points of local interest including the Kennedy Space Center and Daytona Motor Speedway. With all models built at 1:20 scale. Miniland USA covers the sinkhole that was a focal point of the old Cypress Gardens. Lego Kingdoms is inspired by all things medieval and takes kids back to a time of knights, princesses and dragons. Major attractions include The Dragon, a Vekoma Junior Coaster formerly used at Cypress Gardens but now with new-look trains and a section of the ride inside an enchanted Legoland Castle. On The Royal Joust, kids can challenge other riders in a simulated joust aboard a Lego-themed horse. Merlin’s Challenge is a brand new Caterpillar ride by Mack, while The Forestmen’s Hideout is a multi-level tree and rope climb. Lego City is where youngsters experience a
scaled-down town created just for them. Flight School, a Vekoma Junior Suspended Coaster (ex- Cypress Gardens), simulates the thrill of flight. Legoland’s ever-popular Driving School, sponsored in Florida by Ford, offers youngsters the chance to drive their own car by SB International, navigate roads and earn a commemorative driver’s licence. Sitting alongside it is the Ford Jr Driving School. Other major in Lego City include Boating School, also by SB International, and Lego City Rescue Academy, where families compete with one another in fire and police vehicles to be the first to put out a simulated fire. Lego City also boasts its own show, The Big Test, where acrobatics, music and playful teach fire safety. Lego Technic is the most intense zone in the park, themed around Lego’s toy range for older children. Here guests can brave the Lego Technic Test Track Coaster, a Mack Wild Mouse formerly operated at Legoland Windsor as the Jungle Coaster but now
with new cars. This area is also home to Aquazone Wave Racers by Zierer, a Legoland favourite which lets riders zip in and out of waves as they dodge water blasters on jet skis. Technicycle, a pedal- powered Magic Bikes by Zamperla, is similar to that already featured in several Legoland Discovery Centres.
Major attractions in Land of Adventure includes the aforementioned Coastersaurus, a Martin & Velminckx wooden coaster saved from Cypress Gardens, but now with a life-sized Lego dinosaur closeby. Lost Kingdom Adventure is a new Egyptian- themed dark ride from Sally Corp featuring a transport system by Bertazzon. Similar to that found inside other Legoland parks, it is set within an ancient ruined temple as guests fire laser blasters at targets along the course. Safari Trek, meanwhile, lets young riders explores the wilds of Africa and features life- like Lego animals.
Aimed at the very youngest guest, Duplo Village features rides like Junior Fire Brigade, a mini version
