Fonte Luminosa in Lisbon

There is now a page for the Fonte Luminosa (Illuminated Fountain) in Lisbon.   More images are coming, so this page is still in development.   The Fonte Luminosa dates back to 1943 and is considered an icon of the city.

The front section of the fountain contains 4 mermaid statues, each holding a fish spouting water into the fountain.

The entire fountain is brilliantly lit at night, presenting a brilliant display of water, stone and art.
