SHANGHAI, China — A giant 26-meter (85-foot) Lego figure named Dada welcomed visitors to the new Legoland resort in Shanghai.

The resort, which opened Saturday, is the first in China. It is one of 11 parks across the world and was built with 85 million Lego bricks.

Miniland stands out as one of the top attractions, showcasing famous worldwide landmarks recreated with Lego bricks. It includes iconic sites throughout China such as Beijing’s Temple of Heaven and Shanghai’s Bund waterfront. Additionally, visitors can enjoy a boat tour of a historic Chinese water town constructed entirely from Lego bricks.

“My first impression is it is a good recreation, like a real fairyland of Lego,” said Ji Yujia, a Lego fan who was there on opening day.

The resort was developed in conjunction with the Shanghai government by Merlin Entertainments and the LEGO Group.

Visitors were greeted by performances featuring Legoland characters. Tickets range from $44 (319 yuan) to $84 (599 yuan).
