From Disneyland to the upcoming Peppa Pig theme park, Shanghai’s ever-growing list of amusement parks is the gift that keeps on giving. There is yet another park you should add to your Shanghai itinerary – Legoland Shanghai Resort has 8 themed lands with over 75 rides and shows, all targeted at little ones aged between 2 and 12 years old.
Legoland Shanghai Resort is located at Fengjing Town in Jinshan. Fengjing Town is roughly a 1-hour car ride from downtown Shanghai, but it’s also accessible via the metro and bus.
If you want to get there by public transport, take subway line 1 from the city center to Jinjiang Amusement Park Station. From there, hop onto the Feng Mei Xian Line from West Meilong Bus Station, and alight at the Fengjing Pailou stop. The entire trip should take roughly 1 hour and 20 minutes.

Nothing beats screaming at the top of your lungs on a roller coaster, but The Dragon ups the ante. You venture through a medieval castle and chase after enemies on a fearsome steed. This ride is suitable for young ones and first-timers who aren’t used to such rides.

If you’ve ever been to Legoland Malaysia, you must have heard of Legoland’s Driving School. It’s a fun, interactive experience for little ones to enjoy. They’d get to enjoy a mini driving lesson, take a ride around a simple circuit, and they would even receive make-believe drivers’ licenses. Who knows, they might be a budding Max Verstappen or Charles Leclerc, too.
A whole section of Legoland Shanghai is dedicated to the Beach Party water park, where you and the fam can take a break from the heat and enjoy a fun splash. There are a variety of slides and even a giant waterfall that splashes every few minutes.
Quick PSA: some of these attractions might experience seasonal closure periods so check for opening hours on the Legoland Shanghai website before visiting.

Parents, there’s a chance to make your theme park trip a little bit educational as well, as Legoland Shanghai Resort has a bunch of exclusive zones inspired by traditional Chinese landmarks and folklore.
In particular, there’ll be a Monkie Kid-themed zone, inspired by the iconic Chinese novel, Journey to the West. Here, you’ll be able to spot Lego-ified versions of beloved characters like Sun Wukong. A ride you must check out is the Monkie Kid’s Cloud Jumper where you’re whisked on a whip through “treacherous waters”.
Visitors can also keep a lookout for other park elements modelled after famous landmarks, including a boat tour of a Lego-constructed Jiangnan water town.
