Singing Fountain in the Olympic Park
The fountain was built specifically for opening and closing Olympic Games in 2014 and correctly called the “Bowl Olympic Flame “. Well, after the games ended, the fountain left to work as one of the main attractions Sochi.
The diameter of the pool under the fountains – 75 meters, and the number fountains reaches 264 pieces. And each individual lighting. And so that the water flies up to 30-70 meters, the fountain has a whole artillery water cannons – 6 most powerful and 246 weaker.
The fountain is located inside the Olympic Park and is made in a symbolic figure resembling a firebird, encompassing Wings round pool. Her head is also symbolic and outwardly strongly resembles the Olympic torch, which you all saw on TV. But people have a rich imagination, so they don’t stop at similar to the torch.
Famous singing fountain
From this angle, the fountain resembles either a beetle or another what
When I posted a photo of the fountain and the Fisht stadium in the back plan in the social network, then signed, which, they say, look at the alien the beetle looks like. It turns out that I was not the first to spot this perspective (he pretty obvious), only usually the people’s imagination is not a bug ends, and goes further, you know where: up and in parties. In principle, yes, there are some similarities with men’s personal belongings, but not this analogy came to my mind first. Can consider it a test of corruption.
On the same day I returned specifically to watch and take a picture of the singing (dancing) fountain in the dark, when it works. In principle, the scheme is pretty standard – plays music, and the water jerks in different directions in time with the rhythm. First I saw such a fountain once in Barcelona, and then in others countries.
Beautiful, yes. But, if you have already seen something like this, then nothing really will not see the new. However, the sight is beautiful, and I would recommended to visit the fountain, given that all this can combine with viewing the main Olympic sites (albeit with side), as well as a walk along the promenade along the sea. She is there very pleasant.
