ドバイの高層ビルと同じ高さの噴水の名前つけたら約290万円の賞金…




World’s Largest Fountain Building In Dubai

ドバイに50階のビルと同じ高さの噴水が建設される



Last month, Emaar Properties unveiled a world-class permanent water fountain project with an integral light and sound show for Downtown Burj Dubai. It will be the world’s largest fountain at over 900 ft (275 metres) in length, equivalent to that of over two football fields and it is about 25 per cent larger than The Fountains at Bellagio in Las Vegas in area. Powerful water nozzles will shoot water sprays to heights of over 500 ft (150 metres), equivalent to that of a 50-story building.

Click images to enlarge:

The fountains - which are yet to be named - will feature over 6,600 lights and 50 colour projectors that will create a vibrant visual spectrum of over 1,000 different water expressions by shooting 22,000 gallons of water. The total cost to built this is AED 800 million (US$218 million)! This project is expected to draw over 10 million visitors annually.

From the press-release:

The fountain on Burj Dubai Lake is more than a visual spectacle that adds to the aesthetics of Downtown Burj Dubai. It is an engineering marvel and will further contribute to Dubai’s rich array of tourist attractions.

The fountain is positioned next to Burj Dubai, the world’s tallest building, and The Dubai Mall, one of the world’s largest shopping and entertainment destinations. As I have said before, these fountains are yet to be named, and a cash prize of $27,225 will be given to the person who suggests the perfect name for this water fountain project.

This fountain project is scheduled to be operational in 2009!

どこに応募すればいいのかわからんのね、どこだろうΣ(゚Д゚;)

No title

応募しなさい。
中近東では噴水は富とオアシスのシンボルです。
水をお金で買ってきて、贅沢に噴水にする。ボルビック1000トンとか使う、毎日勝って運ぶ、運ぶ。そんな世界ですね。
