Fountain "Pyramida"

Once there was a square fountain on this place, but Catherine I wanted to see a pyramid instead of it. It is believed that the project of this source was an exact copy of the Peterhof fountain of the same name.

"Pyramida" is one of the eight sources of the Summer garden renovated during the restoration works of 2009-2012. Its name he received thanks to unusual form, virtually fully povtorivshey Versailles "obelisk."
