The German Fountain (Turkish: Alman Çeşmesi German: Deutscher Brunnen) is a gazebo styled fountain in the northern end of old hippodrome (Sultanahmet Square), Istanbul, Turkey and across from the Mausoleum of Sultan Ahmed I. It was constructed to commemorate the second anniversary of German Emperor Wilhelm II's visit to Istanbul in 1898. It was built in Germany, then transported piece by piece and assembled in its current site in 1900. The neo-Byzantine style fountain's octagonal dome has eight marble columns, and dome's interior is covered with golden mosaics. -- Wikipedia

As good as a fountain can get? It's impressive and is definitely worth a visit if you are in the area. It is on a strip of concrete which also has other monuments to check out. I don't know if it ever opens because there is a fence on the inside, but overall a nice fountain.

Such a beautiful monument. You can read all about it on the spot. The spigots around the base work allowing youI to cool off and wash your face or feet. A great place to take photos.
