Originated in Japan, this UNESCO World Heritage Art Exhibition has attracted over 2.9 million participants in Japan and around the world. As you would have guessed it, all the exhibits here are made with LEGO®Bricks.
This reproduction of the famous historic site in Rome, Italy, Colosseum consists of an astounding number of 7, 000 LEGO®Bricks. While you may not have imagined such a majestic ancient relic to be replicated in LEGO® form, this art piece will definitely have you floored.
The not-to-be-missed exhibition highlights are LOVE EARTH, LOVE ASIA; and LOVE ASEAN, all of which are featuring LEGO® replicas of UNESCO World Heritage Sites. In commemoration of ASEAN’s 50th anniversary, seven new replicas of ASEAN’s heritage sites will also be displayed at the exhibition.
UNESCO World Heritage sites in LEGO® form
