SHANGHAI, May 7 (Xinhua) — LEGOLAND Shanghai Resort, the world’s largest Legoland, will officially open on July 5, its operator Merlin Entertainments announced Wednesday.

“The announcement of the grand opening date is a major milestone for LEGOLAND Shanghai Resort,” said John Jacobsen, chief strategy officer at Merlin Entertainments, adding that the Shanghai resort “will bring the LEGO experience to life on a grand scale.”

Located in Shanghai’s Jinshan District, the 318,000 square metre resort is a LEGO theme park and hotel for children aged 2 to 12 and their families.

The resort features more than 75 interactive rides, shows and entertainment structures, as well as thousands of LEGO models across eight exciting “lands”.

Shanghai is emerging as a key investment destination for international theme park operators looking to capitalise on China’s expanding entertainment and travel market.

The influx of new international brands follows the success of two major predecessors: Shanghai Disney Resort and Universal Beijing Resort. -0-
