Description
While visiting the six palaces with gardens, fountains and reflective pools in the Alhambra, Granada in Spain, this fountain of the 12 lions intrigues the imagination. Each lion spews out water from its mouth one at a time for each of the twelve hours of the day. What a tremendous hydraulic feat planned centuries ago! It is part of the five-mile water conduit from a river at the top of the mountain to fulfill the needs of the numerous bath houses, fountains and gardens of the six palaces built over many centuries in the Alhambra.
