Lego, the world's biggest toymaker, has developed a large model of Rio de Janeiro city to celebrate the 2016 Olympic Games.

The model is the largest ever made for Latin America by the group and took 50 Lego builders some 2,500 hours altogether to create. The miniature city features the Olympic rings, stadiums and iconic sites in Rio, all made from colorful plastic bricks. The structure is composed of over 950,000 pieces of Lego, and is set to open in just a few days.
