There are many "architectural wonders" in Dubai, one of them is singing fountains. The Dubai Fountain is one of the tallest musical fountains in the world (275 meters long, jets reach 150 meters high), located in an artificial lake with an area of over 12 hectares at the foot of the Burj Khalifa. The scale of the fountain and the light and music show has no equal in the world! The list of musical compositions for water dancing is diverse and regularly updated. The fountain "sings" with the voices of Andrea Bocelli and Sarah Brightman, Michael Jackson, Celine Dion, Whitney Houston and Adele. There are also a large number of Arabic compositions, the anthem of the United Arab Emirates and many musical compositions from movies. The music doesn't repeat itself for one day. In addition, the order of the tunes changes the next day, but the show always begins with an ode dedicated to the Sheikh of Dubai, Mohammed "Sama Dubai". The Swahili song Baba Yetu, which means "Our Father", is also played daily. It's hard to believe, but the Dubai Fountain was built for a little less than a year. First, an artificial pond was created, then a water cannon mechanism was installed. Six months after the start of construction, the mechanism was successfully tested. The first fountain show in Dubai took place in the spring of 2009, and since then thousands of travelers have been happy to watch the beautiful "water dances" with bright lighting, smoke and fire effects. Around the fountain there are many shops, chic restaurants, an oriental bazaar and the majestic Dubai Mall. I recommend every tourist coming to Dubai to see this fountain show! The real magic of water and light!
