LEGOLAND Johor Bahru

Explore LEGOLAND Malaysia

LEGOLAND Malaysia Resort, located in Iskandar Puteri, Johor Bahru, opened in 2012 as Asia's first LEGOLAND theme park and the sixth in the world. This 76-acre family-focused destination specifically caters to children aged 2-12 and their families, offering a perfect blend of education and entertainment. The resort comprises three main attractions: LEGOLAND Theme Park with over 70 rides and attractions, LEGOLAND Water Park featuring 20 water slides and attractions, and SEA LIFE Malaysia, an aquarium showcasing marine creatures. Unlike traditional theme parks that focus on extreme thrills, LEGOLAND creates interactive experiences where children can touch, build, and play, bringing the beloved LEGO building blocks to life in exciting and creative ways. The park's proximity to Singapore makes it popular with both Malaysian and Singaporean families.

LEGOLAND Theme Park Zones

The theme park is divided into seven distinct themed zones. The Beginning features the iconic entrance with LEGO sculptures and shops. Imagination showcases creativity with LEGO Mindstorms where children build and program robots, and LEGO Studios where they can star in their own green-screen adventures. LEGO Technic offers more intense rides including the Test Track roller coaster and Aquazone Wave Racers. LEGO Kingdoms transports visitors to medieval times with The Dragon roller coaster, one of the park's most popular attractions where riders battle a fire-breathing LEGO dragon. LEGO City allows children to experience adult roles, driving boats at Boating School, earning driving licenses at Driving School, and fighting fires at the Rescue Academy. Land of Adventure features Lost Kingdom Adventure, an interactive dark ride where riders shoot targets to rescue treasure, and Pharaoh's Revenge water battle. Miniland remains the crown jewel, featuring incredibly detailed miniature versions of Asian landmarks built from over 30 million LEGO bricks, including Petronas Towers, Taj Mahal, Angkor Wat, and Singapore's Merlion.

LEGOLAND Water Park

LEGOLAND Water Park provides refreshing fun with attractions uniquely designed around LEGO themes. LEGO Wave Pool generates waves perfect for floating and swimming fun. Joker Soaker features a giant bucket that dumps water on unsuspecting visitors below, along with interactive water cannons and slides. Build-A-Raft River allows families to construct their own LEGO raft before floating along a lazy river circuit. Twin Chasers features side-by-side water slides where riders race each other. Splash Out offers five different slide experiences from gentle to more thrilling options. The highlight is Duplo Splash Safari, specially designed for toddlers with small slides, water features, and interactive play areas featuring colorful DUPLO animals. The water park also includes private cabanas available for rent, providing shaded rest areas for families wanting extra comfort. With mainly tropical weather in Malaysia, the water park provides perfect relief from the heat while maintaining the playful LEGO theme throughout.

SEA LIFE Malaysia

SEA LIFE Malaysia, integrated within the resort complex, offers an educational marine adventure featuring themed zones that explore different aquatic environments. The facility houses over 13,000 sea creatures from 120 species across 11 themed zones. The Ocean Tunnel provides a 360-degree underwater viewing experience as sharks, rays, and large fish swim overhead and around visitors. The Shipwreck zone recreates a sunken vessel environment where octopuses and groupers hide among the ruins. Interactive rock pools allow children to touch starfish, sea cucumbers, and other marine life under supervision of knowledgeable staff. The seahorse exhibit showcases these fascinating creatures in various sizes and colors. Regular feeding sessions and talks provide educational insights into marine conservation and animal behavior. The newest additions include the Green Sea Turtle display, raising awareness about these endangered creatures. The aquarium experience complements the LEGOLAND experience by offering a calmer, educational interlude from the excitement of rides and attractions.

LEGOLAND Hotel Experience

For the ultimate LEGOLAND experience, the LEGOLAND Hotel provides immersive overnight accommodation just steps from the park entrance. The hotel features 249 rooms across four themed floors: Pirate, Kingdom, Adventure, and LEGO Friends. Each room includes a separate children's sleeping area with bunk beds, treasure hunt activities, and dedicated kids' entertainment including TVs in the children's section. The main bedroom area provides comfortable amenities for parents. Throughout the hotel, LEGO sculptures, interactive play areas, and building stations keep children entertained even when not in the park. The Bricks Family Restaurant offers buffet dining with child-friendly options and entertainment during meals. The outdoor water play area features slides and splash zones exclusively for hotel guests. Hotel guests enjoy early park access, allowing them to experience popular attractions before the general public arrives. The elevator rides are even entertaining, with disco lighting and music that engages children throughout their stay. Staying at the LEGOLAND Hotel maximizes the experience, allowing families to fully immerse themselves in the LEGO world for multiple days without leaving the resort complex.

Educational Value and Special Programs

Beyond entertainment, LEGOLAND Malaysia emphasizes educational value through various programs and experiences. The park regularly hosts workshops where children learn building techniques, engineering concepts, and creative problem-solving using LEGO bricks. School group programs offer curriculum-linked activities covering science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) concepts through hands-on LEGO experiences. Special events throughout the year include LEGO building competitions, seasonal celebrations like Halloween and Christmas with themed decorations and activities, and character meet-and-greets with LEGO favorites. The park's Master Model Builders demonstrate advanced building techniques in daily shows, inspiring young builders to enhance their skills. Birthday party packages allow children to celebrate special occasions within the park with dedicated areas, meals, and exclusive access to certain attractions. These programs ensure that LEGOLAND visits provide more than just entertainment – they foster creativity, logical thinking, spatial awareness, and collaborative skills through play-based learning that aligns with the fundamental LEGO philosophy of learning through building.
