About LEGOLAND Malaysia :-
"LEGOLAND® Malaysia is the sixth LEGOLAND to be built in the world and the very first in Asia.
Targeted at families with children between the ages of two to twelve years old, LEGOLAND Parks are based on the universally popular LEGO construction toy product. They offer families the opportunity to bond, learn and push the boundaries of their imaginations through LEGO experiences. At LEGOLAND, families can practice their imagination and creativity, have fun while learning, and
understand the importance of caring and quality. Families will be immersed in a unique mix of kidpowered rides, building challenges, spectacular LEGO models, interactive attractions, family-friendly coasters and shows that pull the audience into the action. LEGOLAND Malaysia will feature more than 40 interactive rides, shows and attractions when it opens. Other LEGOLAND theme parks across the world are situated in Denmark, United Kingdom, Germany and USA with California and Florida locations. There are LEGOLAND Hotels in Denmark and the UK; with a hotel scheduled to open in California in 2013."
