Dubai+Fountain

The Dubai Fountain is the largest choreographed fountain in the world, in the man-made Burj Khalifa lake. Its construction cost over 2 million dollars, and was completed on May 8, 2009. It is 902 feet long, with 6,600 lights, and 25 colored projectors. It shoots water up to 500 feet in the air, while playing music. When shooting, there is a loud boom sound from the pressure being exerted. The fountain can shoot 22,000 gallons of water at any time, and the light can be seen up to 20 miles away. The music is played in a speaker system all around the lake and plays more than 30 songs. The performances can be seen and heard at 1 and 1:30 PM, and every 30 minutes from 6-10 PM on weekdays, 6-11 on weekends.
