The fountain basin has a total circumference of 180 meters.
It utilizes 1,046 nozzles and 511 submersible LED lights for its displays.
The central jet, known as the 'Rainbow Fountain', is the tallest among floor-type installations globally.
The plaza floor is designed to be walkable, allowing children to play in the water during non-performance 'experience' sessions.
The water used for the fountain is treated with a filtration system that meets public swimming pool safety standards.
The Dadaepo Sunset Fountain of Dream is the world’s largest floor-type musical fountain, covering an area of 2,519 square meters. Located in Busan’s Saha-gu district, the installation features a central water jet capable of reaching heights of 55 meters. The facility integrates water, light, and music through synchronized multimedia performances. During these shows, hundreds of nozzles and LED lights create complex aquatic choreographies. Visitors can watch the shows from the surrounding ground-level plaza, which allows for direct interaction with the water jets when the system is inactive. The fountain operates seasonally, suspended during the winter months for maintenance and to prevent freezing. Its design includes a specific water-recirculation system to manage the high volume of fluid used during daily performances.
The elevated viewing area on the northern edge of the plaza provides a clear vantage point for capturing the entire illuminated display.
Bring a change of clothes if you plan to enter the fountain area during the daytime interactive sessions.
Check the official city notices online for seasonal show cancellations due to strong winds or heavy rain.
Position yourself on the slightly elevated steps surrounding the plaza for a better view of the light patterns.
Do not attempt to walk through the fountain during the musical performance sessions when the high-pressure jets are active.
Closed on Mondays for facility inspection; the fountain does not operate during the winter season.
Footwear is required to enter the plaza; running and roughhousing near the nozzles are prohibited for safety reasons.
