You can't talk about Geneva without mentioning the beautiful Jet d'Eau which is, beside Cathedrâle St. Pierre, Geneva's most important landmark. The fountain is turned on all year round, only on too cold or too windy days it's turned off.
In summer, it's turned on and illuminated until late in the evening. It's one of the world largest fountains. Learn more about its history

The Jet d'Eau is a much loved and often incredibly beautiful photo motif. Sometimes, when we walk or drive by and the sun is shining, we see all rainbow colors reflected in the fountain. That's my favorite Jet d'Eau view - I found an example
here.
By the way, in the undermost photo above you see a boat - and that's actually a public service vehicle, called "Mouettes" - find all information
