Taman Pecut is a public park in downtown Blitar, East Java, defined by its central dancing fountain installation. The park is located directly in front of the Blitar City Hall (Kantor Walikota Blitar). The dancing fountain is equipped with synchronized lighting and audio systems, creating a visual display during evening hours. The grounds are paved with pedestrian walkways and integrated with modest landscaping. It serves as a social hub for local residents, particularly during evenings and weekends. The park's layout is centered around the water feature, which functions as the primary visual and acoustic attraction. The site is part of the city's urban revitalization efforts to provide accessible public recreation spaces.
