About
Quick facts: Water, light, and music merge into a perfectly synchronized show, where a 200-meter water curtain is followed by colorful laser effects. Every evening at 9 p.m., hundreds of people gather at the main square to watch the 30-minute spectacle.
Highlights: The water jets rise up to 40 meters high and dance to the rhythm of classical music, pop songs, and even movie soundtracks. A special feature is Friday night, when local DJs mix music live and the fountains improvise along with them, something you do not see everywhere.
Insider tips
- Instead of standing in front, position yourself on the staircase next to the side cafe - from there you can see the entire water backdrop from above.
- Bring a light windbreaker, as the evening breeze by the fountains carries a spray of cool water.
- Take photos from a low perspective with the ground in the frame to capture the reflection of the laser colors on the wet pavement.
- Avoid Saturdays, when the square is most crowded - Tuesdays and Wednesdays are much quieter.
