Fountain of the Continents

Fountain of the Continents, located in Parque San Martín of the city of Mendoza in Argentina, is an important monument in the country. It represents the meeting of four continents, symbolizing harmony between them. Created by the Venezuelan artist Carlos Cruz-Diez, it is a beautiful work of art combining art, history and culture. The fountain consists of four fountains – each representing a different continent – which share water in a spectacular ballet. Tall copper sculptures of the four continents encircle the fountain, a landmark that is a must-see for travelers and photographers visiting the Argentinian city of Mendoza. Its popularity has grown significantly in recent years and locals and tourists are proud to pay homage to the work of art.
