Opened in 2017, Legoland Japan has quickly established itself as one of Nagoya’s most family friendly attractions. Primarily aimed at children, there’s enough in the park to keep adults entertained including large-scale Lego models and rides divided into seven themed areas reflecting different worlds in the Lego universe, including Knight’s Kingdom, Pirate Shores, Ninja World, and more.
Like any good theme park, there are plenty of dining areas, merchandise and a hotel on-site to fully immerse you in the world of Lego. Legoland has its own hotel including themed rooms, making it a great option for families, particularly those with younger children. Open daily, the price of admission varies slightly due to classification of days as "peak" or "off-peak."
