LEGOLAND California Resort is one of the fastest expanding theme parks in all of Southern California. Especially in the last couple of years, expansion has been immense. They opened up North's Americas first LEGOLAND Hotel in 2013, the Legends of Chima Water Park in 2014, and Heartlake City in 2015. This year is no different. NINJAGO World opened up to the public on May 5th.
Based off of the popular series of "LEGO Ninjago: Masters of Spinjitsu," this new area covers an area of three acres of space inside LEGOLAND California. With 5 attractions, a shopping venue and dining, you can step into the world of Ninjago!
The entire area is themed as if you were inside the Ninjago universe. 4 smaller attractions allow you to test your balance, speed, agility and creativity. Once you master those, you can begin your training on NINJAGO The Ride, which is center of the entire new land.
NINJAGO The Ride was created in partnership with Triotech. LEGOLAND has been able to eliminate the use of "guns," replacing it with hand gestures. With this, you are able to throw elements of fire, ice and lighting to defeat the invaders. Heat, wind and smoke are used in this ride.
For NINJAGO The Ride, LEGOLAND thought farther outside the box than ever before. The technology built into this ride is changing the industry of attraction making.
"We've really taken LEGOLAND California's principle of 'hands on, minds on' to a whole new level," said General Manager of LEGOLAND California Resort Peter Ronchetti. "We're firing the imagination to another degree taking the idea of using gestures to propel fire, ice, etc... it hs never been done before and its bridging the gap between the old way of using physical props, bricks and the like, with the new world of virtual technology."
This is the idea. With originality at its finest, NINJAGO The Ride has the highest price tag than any other attraction in the park.
LEGOLAND California debuted NINJAGO World on May 5th, perfect timing for summer. Be sure to visit our YouTube channel for videos on the new area.
