DENMARK // Billund's latest big-ticket attraction (opened in 2017) is itself designed to look as though it's made from giant plastic bricks. Inside you'll learn all about the art of playing well' - the word Lego@' is a portmanteau of the phrase in Danish: leg god. A museum recounts the history of the company, and temporary exhibitions, such as a Star Wars retrospective, will delight, with retro sets on display from the archives. Impressive, too, is the Tree of Creativity, a 15m-tall (50ft) structure made with over six million bricks. From the moment you arrive, you'll be itching to get your hands on some plastic pieces to build your very own creations, and there's ample opportunity: themed areas allow you to channel your inner child in creative and thoughtful ways.
