The tourists who visit Seoul can see one of the most beautiful and original fountains in the world - the fountain of the moon rainbow. It was built on the Banpo Bridge, whose length is 570 meters, and is the longest fountain on Earth. On both sides of the bridge were more than 10,000 dynamic nozzles, from which the water jets shot up. This construction is complemented by the beautiful illumination.
The long colorful cascade looks incredibly romantic and really reminds the rainbow. The longest fountain in the world was registered in the Guinness Book of Records. Every evening on the banks of the Khan River thousands of people gather to watch the wonderful romantic show. It is remarkable that the length of the fountain is recorded in the book of the records as 1 140 meters, since it is on both sides of the Brückes. The experienced tourists recommend to graze on the fountains of the southern shore, on which the wonderful park is laid out. From the shore the fantastic panorama opens up to Seoul and one of the most important architectural sights of the city - the tower N.
The curious traveler has a possibility to look at the fountain literally from the inside. It is a matter of the fact that Banpo is a two-storey bridge. On the upper level there are nozzles of the fountain, and on underneath are the excellent viewing platforms. Although the idea of the waterfall seems incredibly simple, the construction took more than 30 years. Among the distinctive features of the fountain is its environmental friendliness - the water is taken from the river, in which it returns in few seconds from the special filters completely cleaned.
