One day I was wandering in K11 Tsim Sha Tsui Hong Kong and stumbled upon the Legoland Discovery Center. Upon entering the door to the escalator, the giant Donut was the center of attraction with a height that almost reaches the top of the 2nd floor. Below the giant Donut was his playhouse. However, to enter the playhouse, one must pay a certain amount, so I didn't bother. Apart from the Donut playhouse, there are other themed play areas too in other parts of the Legoland Discovery Center.
As I walked through the entranceway, the architecture of the place was another attraction. There were lego structure displays in the exhibition area and they vary depending on the occasion. Since it was Chinese New Year when I visited the place, the displays were related to Chinese like the dancing tiger and lion lego. There was also a lego set of Hong Kong's bustling city with different vehicles on the road.
Adjacent to it was the Gift Shop. And from the name itself, you can tell what is inside. I never imagined Lego prices to be that expensive though. I was shocked upon seeing the prices of some items on display. There was a white house that cost HK$849 which is equivalent to more than a hundred US dollars. The iron man lego set was HK$4299 or more than US$500. Only the lego addict will purchase such items at those prices.
My favorite part was Pick & Build where you can build your own lego toys depending on the price you have paid. You can build mini figures or mini cars. I was interested to make my own, but when I saw the price, I backed out, lol. The small cup was HK$99 and the big one was HK$179. It was kind've expensive for me.
But seeing the smiles of the kids playing with lego toys, they worth priceless. Back when I was younger, I wanted to have a lego set of any kind but my parents can't afford to buy one for me 😅. Now I understand why, lol. There are different kinds of lego set perfect as gifts to kids on special occasions. Some adults even like building lego. So Lego is truly for all ages.
