The project was completed with the contribution of significant donors and with the design and curation of the people of the Municipality. The huge fountain – one of the largest in volume of water in all of Europe – has started to operate – with a diameter of 30 meters whose central jet squirts the water 20 metres high and has a total of 188 water beams and 177 underwater headlights that create a pandemonium of light and colour.
