Park Profile
www.parkworld-online.com “
When we
began construction, the gardens themselves were in quite a state of disrepair and were inhabited by a number of Florida species …including alligators. Fortunately, they’ve moved on to other locations
Einstein in the Imagination Zone ” The Battle for Brickbeard’s Bounty
of Rescue Academy where tots become volunteer fire fighters and work together to extinguish the “flames,” plus Big Rig Rally and Granny’s Jalopies. Duplo Farm, meanwhile is a playground feature. At Pirates Cove the little guys also call all the shots. Set alongside the picturesque shores of Lake Eloise, this area of the park has been “invaded” by a host of swashbuckling Lego pirates who star in The Battle for Brickbeard’s Bounty, a live-action water- stunt show. Nearby, hungry fun-seekers can fill up at Cap’n Brickbeard’s Burger restaurant. Elsewhere in the park there are more healthy offerings available. The Imagination Zone is the most hands-on section of the park, emphasising exploration and creation. This area is home to several eye-catching Lego models, among them a giant replica of Albert Einstein’s head. Rides include a cluster of Kids Power Towers by Heege, where kids and parents hoist themselves up to the top of a tower to get a great view of the entire park, and then enjoy a fun freefall to the bottom. The Imagination Zone is also where Legoland guests can build and test a Lego or build and program computerised Lego Mindstorms robots. In addition to the new 10 zones , the soul of the old park has been kept alive in the preserved Cypress Garden area near the lake, where a collection of native plants hve been reclaimed and combined with a range of exotic species. Still standing sentinel in the garden is the vast Banyan tree that was planted as a seedling in 1939.
