Jet d Eau Geneva

A large fountain water jet emblazoned on every piece of tourist literature or books about Geneva Jet dEau is an inescapable icon of the city. Located at the point where Lake Geneva empties into the Rhone River the fountain sends water into the sky at 124 mph 220km/h up to 460 feet 140 meters high and is visible throughout the city. It operates in summer from May to September but also during the Motor Show in March.
