Fuente de los Niños Miones, Bronze fountain in Plaza Tapatía, Guadalajara, Mexico

The fountain features sculptures of multiple children created by artist Miguel Miramontes, with water flowing through their playful figures in the central plaza.

Installed in 1982, the fountain has experienced two incidents of sculpture theft, with both pieces recovered after community and law enforcement intervention.

The fountain resembles similar water features worldwide, including the Manneken Pis in Brussels, representing childhood innocence through public art.

Located at coordinates 20.676722, -103.342944, visitors can reach the fountain through multiple public transportation routes in downtown Guadalajara.

Local residents refer to this fountain as 'The Fountain of the Pissing Children' due to its design depicting children in natural poses.
