Yes, that's right! The New Legoland, which will replace the former Cypress Gardens in Winterhaven Florida is expected to open at the end of 2011 and is expected to be the LARGEST LEGOLAND EVER OPENED TO DATE!
Merlin Entertainment is planning a "Resort" strategy which could include accomodations and other branded attractions from Merlin's portfolio. There are currently 4 other Legoland Parks in Denmark, Germany, the UK and California.
Legoland Florida will be open year round and provide a full day of fun to include more than 50 rides, shows and attractions including of course, the "Spectacular Lego Models". Rumor has it they intend to keep the water shows and the Southern Belles.
This is such an exciting Theme Park to add to so many others in the Central Florida area. We're so lucky to be within driving distance to Legoland Florida which is approximately 30 minutes from Orlando and close to Tampa for a perfect location. Kids as well as parents will be counting down the days until it opens. It could be just what this abandoned park needs to bring back the fun and exciting place it once was.
Have a wonderful day and Enjoy!
