LEGO® Leifeng Pagoda

Description

A landmark by West Lake

The Leifeng Pagoda stands beside West Lake in the Chinese city of Hangzhou and is one of the best-known buildings in the region. The set reproduces it in miniature, with the typical stacked storeys and curved roofs. It was released through the Brand Stores in 2020 and was not part of the regular retail range. If you are interested in architecture or travel subjects, this is an unusual model that you can assemble without much effort and that still has a clear identity you can spot at a glance.

Few part types, clear colours

It is remarkable that the 106 pieces contain only twelve different part types. That fits a building whose storeys repeat, so many identical bricks and plates are used several times. The colours are black, red, white and pearl gold, which together give a traditional, elegant effect. Pearl gold in particular picks out the roofs and decoration. The list further down shows how the few part types are spread across the colours.

Building and displaying

Thanks to the clear repetition the build moves along quickly and suits less experienced builders too. No minifigure is included, so the pagoda is purely a display piece. On a shelf or desk it looks like a small souvenir, and if you own other Asian-inspired models it sits well beside them. Collectors may find it interesting, since Brand Store sets were available only for a limited time and are hard to track down later.

Reusing the parts

Every piece with colour and quantity is listed further down. Add the set to your collection and the “What can I build?” tool on this page will show which models your bricks can make. The pearl gold and red pieces are handy for temples, castles or fantasy buildings. So you can rebuild the pagoda later, or treat it as a source of roof pieces and details for your own projects, however you like.
