Legoland Florida Part Two: Miniland, USA

At Legoland Florida, there is a section called Miniland, USA. Miniland USA is home to seven specially themed areas. This was my favorite part of the park. The builders at Legoland created mini versions of cities such as Miami, Chicago, New York, San Francisco, Las Vegas and more. Now when I say mini versions, I don't mean a couple of inches tall, I mean a couple of feet tall. The tallest building in the display is the Empire State Building at 20 feet tall! Once again, EVERY structure is constructed from LEGO's.



WARNING: PICTURE OVERLOAD!!!

Not to be bias, but Miami was my favorite.


The Miami section had South Beach, Downtown Miami and Little Havana. They managed to cover all the basics!!

Just to show you how detailed these structures are, here is a side-by-side view of the actual Bacardi building in Miami and the Bacardi building at Legoland:


This pic demonstrates the size of the buildings compared to a human being:


They are IMPRESSIVE!!

Since Legoland is in Florida, they also covered many other cities in Florida: Tampa, Daytona, St Augustine, Panama City Beach, the Keys. Here are a couple:


I loved how they covered the whole speedway. They had the RV's, the pit crews, the fans, the signs, ALL OF IT!



Now on up the East Coast:

They also had a cool pirate display the kids loved. It was a fun interactive display:


Here's a close-up of one of the pirate ships:


Miniland, USA is really a must-see. As an architect, JC was in awe of what can be created with millions of bricks and a little imagination. LEGO's really are fun for all!!!

  1. That's amazing. I'd be looking for my old apartment in mini San Francisco. I've never been there. We have Lego headquarters up here and I do believe there's some sort of Lego themed park somewhere or another. I'd love to go.
