    The first impression that most people in Chicago introduced to their minds should be Yundou Sculpture, but when they travel to Chicago, they fall in love with this crown fountain. I feel that the Chicago fountain in summer is full of youthful vitality. The fountain is full of children playing. It feels very leisurely. A major attraction, You can slow down, grab a cup of coffee, sit on the steps next to you, see the scenery, and chat. The crown fountain was designed by Catalan artist Jaume Plensa and opened to the public in July 2004. It has gradually become a major landmark attraction in Chicago. The reflection pool of black granite and two image towers in Chicago must-check in attractions constitute the crown fountain. The smiles of the Chicago citizens are played in turn, and the design of the fountain is also very cool. A water flow hole is designed from the citizens' mouth. The fountain will provide water from May to October. Every 5 minutes, there is a scene of water spraying with a drum mouth. It is a large attraction with a life atmosphere. Very recommended to come and check in

    Chicago Millennium Park is the best urban public space design I've ever seen. Apart from the functions of city gardens, they are open, beautiful, dynamic and interactive, embodying people-oriented care everywhere, meeting the needs of different groups, whether old people, young people or children, can find suitable areas for their activities. On the side of the park near Michigan Avenue, there is a unique modern fountain, Crown fountain, designed by Spanish designer Piranza. Water is constantly pouring down from two 15-meter-high cubic towers to form water curtain waterfalls. In the middle of the two cubic towers are shallow pools of water and feet. The surface of the cube tower is made up of LED square screen, which shows colorful faces. This is a color photograph of 1,000 Chicago citizens of different ethnicities, sexes and ages. It is alternately played with music and replaced with one for 10 minutes. The theme is that the Chicago people welcome friends from all over the world. This is the children's playground, they enjoy playing, playing and chasing. Interestingly, these faces not only laugh, but also close their eyes and pout their mouths, and their expressions are very much. After a while, a water column suddenly sprayed out from his mouth, and the children playing around rushed to stand under the water column. This is the perfect combination of modern art and modern science and technology.
