EPCOT
Fountain:-
The Disney Imaginers are masters
-- taking a few simple rudiments such as light,
water and sound and creating one of the most
gorgeous "attractions" -- the Innovation
Fountains located in Innovations Plaza in Epcot's
Future World.
The intricate exhibit is based
on a 180 x 120 foot oval.
Computerized pumps
send 30,000 gallons of water cascading down its
tiered walls per minute.
Over 108,000 gallons
of water twirl all through the fountain. |

The supernatural fountains have been part of Epcot
since opening day. In fact, as a representative sign
of global collaboration and sympathy, representatives
from 22 countries each poured a gallon of water from
their motherland into the fountain.
Visitors can often be found enthralled by the dancing
fountains and associated with music, the blend of which
can sooth ragged nerves especially after a long day
at the park. One of the best places to enjoy the show
is sitting in the outdoor cafe of the Fountain view
Espresso Bar. This makes the visit to Disney world a
magical memory.

The
original fountains were refurbished in 1993 --
with 304 nozzles and "shooter" that
can push water over 150 feet in the sky.
It took
3 months of computer programming to devise the
water ballets that run every 15 minutes.
At night,
the fountains take on another measurement as
1,068 colored lights focus on the streams of
water.
In holiday time the rate of the
tickets decreases and visitors can enjoy the
benefit of cheap Walt Disney discount tickets.

During the month of December, when the entire World
has been altered by thousands of holiday ribbons,
the fountain also takes on a new dimension.
The music changes to holiday music and the fountains
are now in ideal accord with the Lights of Winter
Archway.
So, in conclusion it can be said that EPCOT
fountain is an integrated part of Orlando Florida
theme park attraction.
