Legoland Malaysia A


The sixth Legoland park worldwide, the first in Asia, and the first to be built from scratch for 10 years, Legoland Malaysia was officially opened on September 15. Families can enjoy more than 40 rides, shows and attractions set within a 76-acre site close to the border with Singapore. We hope you


enjoy these pictures!

fter several years of planning, nothing could be more gratifying than the smiles of thousands of children – and their parents –


enjoying Legoland Malaysia together for the first time,” noted John Jakobsen, managing director of Legoland parks for Merlin Entertainments. “Legoland parks are all about giving our guests a full day of fun where everything is hands-on and the families create their own adventures.” At Legoland Malaysia, the adventure is spread across seven themed zones, starting at The Beginning where as well as the colourful entrance, the Big Shop welcomes guests. Miniland is the heart of every Legoland park, and at Legoland Malaysia it features Lego 1:20 scale replicas of Asian landmarks including the Petronas Towers, Taj Mahal and Singapore’s Merlion statue. Lego City hosts such attractions as the Legoland Express (train ride), Rescue Academy, Lego City Airport (plane ride), Driving School, Junior Driving School, Boating School, Shipyard (playground) and the Lego City Stage.
