Banpo Bridge ~ What makes Banpo Bridge
is amazing is because of its Moonlight Rainbow Fountain. The Moonlight Rainbow Fountain is the world's longest bridge fountain
that set a Guinness World Record with nearly 10,000 LED nozzles that run along both sides that is 1,140m long,
shooting out 190 tons of water per minute. Installed in September 2009 on the
Banpo Bridge, Seoul mayor Oh Se-hoon praised
that the bridge will further beautify the city and showcase Seoul's
eco-friendliness, as the water is pumped directly from the river itself and continuously
recycled. The bridge has 38 water
pumps and 380 nozzles on either side, which draw 190 tons of water per minute
from the river 20 meters below the deck, and shoots as far as 43 meters
horizontally.
