IPOH RHYTHMIC FOUNTAIN
When I went back to Ipoh last week, I noticed that there were quite a number of people at the front of the Ipoh Railway Station. It was around 7.30 p.m. at that time and I was guessing that they must be there to look at the rhythmic water fountain. How right I was. This water fountain was operational just in time for Hari Raya Puasa.
The fountain is called a dry, rhythmic water fountain. Unlike conventional fountain with a pond of water, this dry fountain has its pond underground. There are two fountains at the railway garden, one fronting the Ipoh tree and the other adjacent to the cenotaph.
From newspaper reports, both the fountains will sprout water in different patterns and accompanied with coloured lights. The pattern changes at a 10-minute interval. Each pattern is timed to last for 30 minutes thus allowing the fountain area to be dry before the program restarts.
This weekend I will bring my Aunt Linda to the railway station to check out the new fountain.
