Legoland Japan Resort

Legoland Japan Resort (Japanese: レゴランド・ジャパン) is a theme park in Nagoya, Japan. Opening on 1 April 2017, it was the first Legoland theme park in Japan and the second in Asia (after the Legoland Malaysia Resort), and the eighth worldwide. Upon opening, the park was projected to attract over two million visitors every year.

On June 30, 2014, Merlin Entertainments announced plans to open a Legoland Resort in Nagoya. Construction officially began on April 15, 2015. With a budget of USD $250 million, construction was implemented by Art and Project, TAA Group and Tejix.

The nine-hectare (22.24 acre) park is located in Nagoya's Minato Ward and contains seven areas. It has over 40 attractions and uses approximately 17 million bricks. Attractions include Imagination Celebration, completed on March 12, 2017, and Lego-brick cityscapes of places like Tokyo and Nagoya, which were completed on March 17, 2017.

On March 27, 2017, a commemorative Lego-themed train began running on the Nagoya Rinkai Rapid Transit Aonami Line to celebrate the park's opening. The commuter train, named Legoland Train, began daily service on the Aonami Line, traveling from central Nagoya to the new theme park.

Merlin Entertainments announced plans to build a Legoland Hotel and a Sea Life aquarium next to the park in 2018 to help transform the area into a resort, which was expected to cost JPY¥10 billion.

On December 1, 2017, Legoland Hotel began accepting reservations for its grand opening on April 28, 2018. The opening of Sea Life Aquariums was set for April 15, 2018.

On February 28, 2020, the park was closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The park reopened on March 23, 2020, with limited services, reduced business hours, mask mandates and mandatory temperature checks. Lego Ninjago Live, the Observation Tower, Submarine Adventure, The Coral Reef buffet, and the Knight's Table restaurant were not in operation.

Themed areas of discovery within the resort include:
