Over two million bricks were used to build architectural landmarks from Lego in Miniland, and the installation cost £1.2million.

The new additions include City Hall, 122 Leadenhall Street also known as The Cheese Grater, The Gherkin and Canary Wharf buildings.

The new display of London’s city skyline took model makers a huge 10,800 hours to create.

There are seven new buildings in the attraction including One Canada Square, which is now the tallest model in Miniland.

It stands at at 5.5 meters high, which if laid on its side, would be half as long as a London bus.

The addition of a downsized Canary Wharf also includes the train station and fountain which has running water.

The Vice President of Legoland Windsor, Ramesh Ganeson said: “Miniland London continues to wow our guests since it first opened almost 30 years ago.

“Our continued investment in the Resort has meant the iconic buildings have been updated for a new generation.

“Our talented team of model makers have skilfully refreshed and maintained the intricate details of the London city skyline, which is set to be a towering success.”

He ended by saying just how excited he was to see the final models of the “architectural gems” in time for the new theme park's 2025 season opening.

They haven't just added buildings either, to give the impression of the city, there are little Lego people dotted around.

You'll see them in the Miniland city wearing suits, and others are workmen, or figurines sitting on benches eating their lunch.

To celebrate the Miniland's newest additions, and the looming three decades of the attraction, the park is also launching a one-off competition.

Young Lego enthusiasts are being asked to take part in a competition to decide who will be the first Mayor of Miniland.

The competition for five to 12-year-olds is asking for ideas on what they would like to see, or change in the Miniland London scene.

The best ideas will become a reality with a new build that will be completed during the summer holidays, and the winner will become the very first Mayor.

Plus, the hugely popular Legoland ride that returned to the UK theme park after year-long closure.

And an incredible themed holiday home that Legoland fans will love – it’s right next to the theme park and cheaper too.
