JeddahKing Fahd's Fountain
King Fahd's Fountain rises from the Red Sea beside Jeddah Corniche. By day, its white column of seawater hangs above the coast like mist. At night, hundreds of lights catch the spray and turn the waterfront silver.
It is memorable because the water shoots higher than most city towers. The jet uses seawater, strong pumps, and a base shaped like an Arabian incense burner. Visitors love how one simple plume becomes Jeddah's shared evening landmark. It leaves the sea feeling close and the sky within reach.
