I saw this fountain while strolling along the beach nearby. It's not special. To be honest, I was too lazy to even take a photo with my phone. But we rented bicycles and rode around, especially along the beach. It was very interesting.
The fountain is not spectacular, but it is combined with the ancient Western architecture to make it unique.
If you look closely, you will find that it has very local characteristics.
