Boat Fountain, Spain

From series “The Most Spectacular Fountains in the World”
Tourists visiting Valencia can see a very interesting fountain. Here the original boat fountain was built on the road, which consists of a harmonious construction of the metal and the water-jet braid. The main elements of the construction are the metal tube with small openings. From them flow the fine water jets, which form the boat body and the large fluttering sail.

The fountain is located in the center of the small round basin, so it seems that the boat is literally floating on the water. The fountain is located on the picturesque square, not far from the popular Playa de Malvarosa beach, and is therefore very popular among tourists and holidaymakers. Around the pool were the comfortable Borten benches equipped, on which one can relax on the hot day and graze on the panorama of the coast. In the evening, the couples gather at the wells to graze on the sparkling waters of the sunset.

This place is also called for by the photographers, who choose the best position for several days to capture the mysterious boat, whose sail is 'burning' in the sun. In the night the fountain is adorned with the impressive illumination, so you can visit the sights at nightfall. It must be noted that there are the similar boat fountains also in some other countries, namely in Portugal and Israel. Nevertheless the fountain in Valencia is the most famous and most visited. Its main particularity is the maximum simplicity of construction. Next - Horace Dodge
