THE world’s biggest Legoland park is in the UK – and its about to look much better.
Legoland Windsor first opened in 1996 and was the most-visited theme park in the UK pre-Covid.

Despite a number of new attractions opening at the park, the main entrance has remained relatively unchanged.
However, new images have revealed a grand new makeover to replace the “dated” area.
The plans show two new structures on either side of the Legoland sign, looking like giant Lego bricks.
Lego characters such as knights and ninjas are also on the towers.
The new look will “will complement the existing attractions within the resort”.
It is also part of a new upgrade to the entire entrance area, being dubbed “The Beginning”.
This includes a new Brick Street Cafe, upgraded bag search areas and ticket areas and improved crossing.
The plans were given the go-ahead last November, although a confirmed opening date of the new area is yet to be confirmed.
In the mean time, the theme park has 55 attractions to explore.
The park’s Miniland revealed its £1.2million makeover earlier this year.
Ahead of it’s 30th anniversary next year, the revamp of Miniland included new buildings such as The Cheese Grater, The Gherkin and Canary Wharf buildings.
They also launched the first ever Lego music festival earlier this year with live gigs and ‘sushi’ bars.
We sent someone down to try it out – here’s what it was like.
And last year saw the opening of their new 130-lodge new Woodland Village, as well as the new double-track coaster ride Minifigure Speedway.
