VIDEO: Centennial Olympic Park Fountain in Atlanta, Georgia

 

The Centennial Olympic Park fountain in downtown Atlanta, Georgia was constructed in preparation for the 1996 Summer Olympics. At its centerpiece are five Olympic circles embedded in the pavement, from which waters spout in syncopation with songs such as Chariots of Fire and Frank Sinatra’s Fly Me to the Moon. The Olympics are long gone, but the Centennial Olympic Park fountain remains, entertaining millions of visitors each year with the free show four times a day, 365 days a year, at 12:30 p.m., 3:30 p.m., 6:30 p.m. and 9 p.m.

  1. Barbara,
    Somewhere in that park is a tunnel with bricks and people’s names are on the bricks. All three of my sons’ names are on their own brick. We went to the Olympics that year the day after the bombing.
