The Dubai Fountain is a world's largest water fountain and Dubai's most popular free tourist attraction with large display of water jets gushing out of a puddle at the foot of the Burj Khalifa. It is quite ironic to have such a large aquatic feature in one of the driest/hottest areas of the Earth.  It is set on the 30-acre Burj Khalifa Lake in Downtown Dubai; the fountain shoots water jets as high as 500 feet. The magnitude of the jets is unreal in that they reach as high as a 50 story building. The fountain is consists of a 275 meters long and has five circles of varying sizes and two central arcs.  It was designed by California-based WET, the creators of the Fountains of Bellagio in Las Vegas. It has over 6,600 wet superlight and 50 color projectors create a visual spectrum of over 1,000 different water expressions that appeal to visitors. Different combinations of water-forms of The Dubai Fountain perform to selected musical pieces – chosen from a range of classical to contemporary Arabic and world music.

If you are planning to go Dubai then you must visit this attraction as for a personal viewing you can hire a boat out to the fountain. The Dubai Water Fountain performance held daily and last up to 5 minutes. This is not just a randomized fountain feature, it is so high-tech that the jets are synchronized to the culture music of Dubai, with the performance repertoire including: Sama Dubai; an award-winning song in Swahili; Baba Yetu, the signature piece of world-renowned Italian tenor Andrea Bocelli, and the Arab world’s top-selling dance number Shik Shak Shok, Con te partiro (Time to Say Goodbye).
