Description of the attraction
The Fountain Garden is located along the Naypyidaw-Taungne road next to the Naypyidaw City Hall. The entrance to the park is marked by three steel arches, decorated in the Art Nouveau style. Behind these arches, visitors will find flower gardens, playing fields, open areas for music performances, cafes and, of course, fountains. There are more than a dozen of them here. They are located right in small ponds, on which you can also ride on catamarans. Three fountains can be seen in the main pond, located near the entrance to the park. In the evenings, when the heat of the day subsides, parties are often held here in the open air. Ringing water jets fly into the air, beautifully illuminated by red, green and purple lamps.
You can walk around the entire 67-hectare Garden of Fountains in 8-10 hours. The park is visited not only by adult companies having picnics right on the green lawns on the shores of the lakes, but also by families with children. For younger guests, two fountains have been converted into pools with slides and waterfalls. One of the fountains, the smaller one, is intended for toddlers, while the other is quite suitable for teenagers.
One of the attractions of the Fountain Park is the open pavilion-museum, which contains old boats of the Burmese. These floats were sawed out of a huge tree trunk. Some specimens reach a length of 15 meters.
The 9.1 meter high clock tower can serve as a landmark in the park. There are two rock gardens nearby. Visitors are also attracted by two observation towers.
