Lego Water Maze to Open in Japan

The maze is part of a new summer-only water attraction celebrating the Nagoya theme park’s fifth anniversary.

Legoland Japan Resort in Nagoya is celebrating its fifth anniversary in April this year, and the family-friendly theme park is getting an upgrade with new attractions. Starting this spring, it’ll be hosting the first-ever Legoland Games and opening the new Rainbow Design Studio. But come summertime, Legoland will have an all-new water park that’s exclusive for the season, composed of six different areas.

The 2,400sq m Water Maze is a world-first for a Lego theme park. Unlike other Legoland water parks, this one is a maze, as its name suggests, so you’ll have to hunt around to find the path into the next area. Details of all six zones haven’t been released yet, but here’s what we know so far. There’ll be a 2.3m-tall blue dragon statue made from around 300,000 Lego blocks, and a 15m waterfall you can shower under. There are a total of 19 water cannons and five water slides placed around the water park to play with, too.

Starting in spring, the park will host seasonal Legoland Games, scattering challenges and puzzles throughout the entire park. It’s open for both children and adults and costs an additional ¥1,200 (children ¥500) on top of your entry ticket price to participate. The first Legoland Games will run from March 18 to May 8.
