This water and light show has been going on for about a year now and sits at the doorstep of the worlds tallest tower - the Burj Khalifa.

It plays every 15 minutes to different songs. all the water and light shows a choreographed to the music that plays.

its quite spectaculat to see it in real life, to feel and see the water and lights going off from a close distance.

ive taken some cool photos of the fountain myself and ive got to admit that its unbelievably out of this world.

What a beautiful fountain! Though it is odd that developers choose to build these giant fountains in deserts. The cost to run them must be astronomical.

well its not exactly the 'desert' so to speak..not anymore anyways.

The worlds biggest fountain is in down town Burj Residence, right next the Dubai mall, the worlds biggets mall, and Burj Khalifa, the worlds tallest tower.

When talking about everything in extravagance and the grandiose, does anything compare to the scale at which Dubai has built its foundation upon for the past 2 decades?

There's even this.
