ROSHEN Multimedia Fountain

Vinnytsia

About this place

One of the most spectacular and largest multimedia fountains in Ukraine and Europe is located in picturesque Vinnytsia. Although it appeared in the city only in 2011, it has since rightly been considered its calling card. The unique fountain was designed using the latest technologies that allow its structure to remain underwater in winter. When operating, the fountain creates an amazing show in which a laser projector and an air-water mixture are used to reproduce incredible three-dimensional patterns. The fountain works during the day and in the evening, but the most beautiful light-and-music show can be seen only at dusk, around 21 hours. One of five shows, lasting from 1 to 2 hours, is presented to viewers.
