Denmark's most visited attraction outside Copenhagen, the more than 50 rides and activities are mainly geared towards kids under 15, but parents and adults can gaze at the miniland of famous buildings and places build up of more than 50 million LEGO bricks, while the toddlers queue up for the rides.
Legoland Billund Resort, the original Legoland park, opened on 7 June 1968 in Billund, Denmark. The park is located next to the original Lego factory and Billund Airport, Denmark's second-busiest airport. Over 1.9 million guests visited the park in 2011, and 50 million guests have visited the park since it opened. This makes Legoland the largest tourist attraction in Denmark outside Copenhagen. The Legoland parks that have since been built are modelled upon Legoland Billund, most noticeably the Miniland area, which is made up of more than 20 million plastic Lego bricks.

One can spend a few hours in the lego-themed building. in the two exhibition and four play areas. However the venue is not extremely big and has limited number of visitors per day, thus booking the visit a few days upfront is a good idea. Free entry to the Lego Shop, central square, rooftop playgrounds and the restaurant.
