Fountain at Neva river, Musical fountain on the Neva River, Saint Petersburg, Russia
The fountain creates water streams that rise from the surface of the Neva River, forming patterns synchronized with musical compositions and light displays.
The fountain was established in 2006 for the G8 summit, remained in storage between 2009 and 2012, and returned to its location near Vasilievsky Island.
The fountain performances add a modern element to Saint Petersburg's waterways, complementing the traditional architectural elements of the surrounding buildings.
Visitors can watch the fountain displays from designated viewing areas along the embankment, with performances running during summer evenings.
The fountain's water jets emerge directly from the Neva River surface, creating an effect where the river itself appears to dance with the music.
