KARATE DOJO
Welcome to the Karate Dojo, a place of discipline, training, and inner growth. Inspired by traditional Japanese architecture, this set captures the essence of martial arts.
What You’ll Find
At the entrance, a large red Torii gate welcomes students and symbolizes the transition from the outside world to a place of personal growth.
The dojo is surrounded by a beautiful garden with blossoming trees, bamboo, and rocks, creating a serene and harmonious environment.
Beside the dojo, a peaceful pond filled with water lilies and fish adds to the atmosphere, where frogs and colorful birds can also be spotted.
The set comes to life with minifigures—watch as a wise master guides students through the fundamental techniques of karate.
The dojo structure spans multiple levels:
- On the ground floor, there's a room where training equipment such as tonfa, nunchaku, and wooden staffs are stored.
- In the second room, trophies won by students in competitions are proudly displayed, along with a wooden katana as a centerpiece.
- The upper floor features a relaxation area with a spacious terrace.
Playability
- The upper part of the dojo's roof can be removed to reveal the interior of the first floor.
- A movable wall allows access to the ground floor training room for an interactive experience.
Dimensions
- Base: 48x48 studs
- Number of pieces: 2,075
Why I Built It
I practiced karate for over 10 years, and I’ve always been fascinated by Japanese culture. Karate is more than just a sport; it’s a philosophy of life based on discipline, respect, and personal growth.
I wanted to capture this essence in a LEGO set, combining the elegance of traditional Japanese architecture with the energy of martial arts. My goal was to create not only a visually stunning model but also a set that inspires stories, play, and creativity for all LEGO and martial arts enthusiasts.
