The Geneva fountain in Switzerland
The Geneva fountain located in the southwest corner of Lake Geneva, the Great Fountain is the city landmark of Geneva. According to the website of the Tourism Administration of Geneva, the fountain was built in 1891, with a jet height of 140 meters and a jet speed of 200 kilometers per hour. It is one of the most famous artificial fountains in the world.
The Great Fountain in Geneva has been the symbol of this Swiss city since it opened in 1954. If you go to search for the source of this world-famous and widely copied fountain on cold or windy days, all you can find is a nozzle with a diameter of 10 cm.
However, if the wind force drops or the temperature rises, it is time for it to spray water. Its nozzle will spray 7 tons of water into the air more than 100 meters high at the speed of 193 kilometers per hour, setting off the alpine sky. The water full of countless bubbles glitters with the light of snow. When the sun penetrates through the water column directly into the sky, it brings a rainbow to shine. Sometimes the simplest thing is the best.
