He constructed an series of caves, tunnels, towers, rock villages, waterfalls, dragons and gnomes and opened the Valley of the Moon in 1932 as a children's theme park. Legler gave magic shows and fairy tours; in the 1940s, he produced "Bunnyland", an eleven-act theater program featuring rabbits dressed for various roles. In the 1970s, the Valley of the Moon Restoration Association was created to restore the park.
