Legoland Malaysia to open in September

The finishing touches are being added to the Legoland Malaysia attraction ahead of its opening on 15 September.

Located in Nusajaya, Johor, the park will feature more than 40 interactive rides, shows and attractions and will be Merlin Entertainments' sixth Legoland park worldwide - its first in Asia.

A themed hotel within the grounds of the attraction is scheduled to open in 2014. It is hoped that the park will attract more than 1.5 million people a year.

The Malaysian site is the first of many new Legoland attractions planned for Asia. In September 2011, Merlin revealed that it had identified Asia Pacific as an important new development region for future Legoland developments.

It has earmarked a number of potential sites for further investigation and has reached principal agreements with the regional government and key potential private investors in Korea, paving the way to more detailed negotiations.

Work is currently underway on detailed planning related to the new site in Chuncheon City in Gangwon province, South Korea, approximately 60km from the capital of Seoul.
