In a city where mice, cartoon characters and comic books are transformed into roller coasters, shows and rides for families and kids to enjoy, there didn’t seem to be much more room for another theme park. But in Orlando–the tourist capital of the world–there’s always room for more fun and LEGOLAND added a completely fresh and different park to the mix.

With a history dating back to Denmark in 1932, the Lego toys have been a staple in homes around the world. And now, it’s come to life in the heart of Orlando. With over 50 rides, attractions and shows, LEGOLAND offers kids ages two through 12 a place to build, learn and have fun. LEGOLAND Florida joins a family of four other parks around the world – Denmark, London, California and Germany.

The 150-acre park houses 10 different areas: Fun Town, Miniland USA, DUPLO Village, LEGO Kingdoms, Land of Adventure, LEGO City, Imagination Zone, LEGO TECHNIC, Pirates’ Cove and Cypress Gardens. They can see and learn how LEGO bricks are made, see cities recreated with LEGOs, take a ride on the Dragon (an indoor/outdoor family roller coaster) and even build and program computerized LEGO robots. The family-oriented park offers visitors a new and exciting alternative to the larger more well-known parks in Orlando.

About Nada Taha

Nada spends hours a day updating Facebook, Tweeting and combing through pictures on Pinterest and she gets paid for it. She firmly believes in the phrase “Geek is Chic” because she’s the nerdy web girl (but drives a 6-speed Mini Cooper in 5-inch heels so it evens out). She travels with a full entourage of Apple products and can’t put down her iPhone, which could have led to her dropping it in a (clean-water) toilet once before. When she’s not dreaming about traveling around the world and eating at hole-in-the-wall bistros, she’s covering NBA teams as a freelance writer for SLAM Magazine and NBA.com, handling the web/social media for Orlando’s No. 1 radio station, XL1067.com, and expanding her high-heel shoe collection. She’s written for newspapers like the Orlando Sentinel, magazines like Orlando Weekly and websites like WESH Channel 2 News. She doubles (triples?) up as a social media consultant for just about anyone willing to let her take risks and push their brand to the edge for results.
