About
Korte feiten: Step into a glowing maze of choreographed jets and colored lights, where walkable water tunnels and sudden mist make every photo feel cinematic. Recognized by Guinness World Records as the largest fountain complex in a public park, the nighttime show blends sound, light and motion into an unexpectedly playful urban escape.
Hoogtepunten: At night 13 illuminated fountains dance in timed sequences of water, colored lights, and music, with jets forming archways and a mist that smells faintly of chlorine and grilled corn from nearby vendors. Locals have a playful ritual of daring friends to sprint through the laser-lit water tunnel while photographers wait to capture the moment their hair barely wets and neon reflections smear across the pool.
Insider tips
- Wear quick-dry shoes or sandals and bring a light jacket, as spray from fountains and evening breezes can be chilly.
- Stand near the underwater tunnel or the central Fantasia fountain for the best photos of colored arches and reflections.
- Arrive 15–20 minutes before a show to claim a front-row spot, especially on weekends.
- Keep small electronics in water-resistant pockets or a zip-lock bag, and skip expensive souvenir stalls just outside the main entrance.
