If we look back to the ancient times, we will see how skillful people were as they were able to build magnificent architectural monuments that impress us till today. But what will modern people leave as a cultural heritage? We can construct potent skyscrapers, exquisite monuments and fabulous fountains. That is what I would like to focus on. I present you 5 most fantastic fountains in the world.
1. Banpo Bridge in Korea. The bridge is considered one of the most renowned masterpieces in this genre. From both sides of the construction fall down streams of water (190 tons of water per minute) lighted by multicolor projectors (220 lights). Its name is Moonlight Rainbow Fountain, but it is often called by the name of the bridge. Its length is 1140 meter, which makes the Moonlight Rainbow Fountain the longest one in the world.
2. Big Wild Goose Pagoda Music Fountain situated in Saudi Arabia. The fountain is placed next to the famous Big Wild Goose Pagoda and is considered the largest musical fountain throughout Asia that by the way features the longest light bar. Fire is shot out of the holes, a huge folding waterscape is created by 22 sprays. Once seen the image, you will never forget it.
3. Fontana de Trevi situated in Italy. I would call this fountain the most romantic one. Fontana de Trevi is the largest fountain in baroque style that is placed at the end of the famous Aqua Virgo aqueduct.
4. Charybdis Fountain in UK. An unusual vortex fountain that rises every 15 minutes. Thanks to a sheer plastic type polymer around it, water seems to stand alone.
5. La Joute Fountain in Canada. What can be more fabulous that a combination of water and fire? Bronze statues circle the masterpiece Ring of flames lasts 7 minutes, than gas is shot through to form the fire and a dense mist appears. The cycle is 32 minutes long.
