Located in the north square of Big Wild Goose Pagoda, it is a landmark of Xi'an with its colorful lights at night.
The fountain is divided into three areas: a 100-meter waterfall pool, an eight-level waterfall pool, and a front-end music pool. It can be divided into three areas for independent performances or an overall performance.
The eight-level cascading pool has the world’s largest square array, and the nozzles can be transformed into a variety of water types through arrangement and combination.
The large laser water curtain fountain can fully burn and explode at a low temperature at a height of 6 meters, which is a sensory experience that tourists cannot miss.

I have to give a thumbs up to my hometown. The air quality has been getting better in recent years. I am thinking about going back home to work and living in this city forever. As one of the landmarks of the ancient city, the Big Wild Goose Pagoda is also a business card of Xi'an, telling tourists about the history of the Tang Dynasty. The area around the Big Wild Goose Pagoda is currently undergoing a major renovation. I believe that in the near future, it will become an internationally famous tourist attraction.
Maybe it was because it was on the side, the viewing effect was not good, and it was impossible to change the angle because of the three layers of tourists inside and outside. When the wind direction suddenly changed, the water vapor hit us in the face. Fortunately, we came prepared. The two children put on raincoats and held up umbrellas in front of them to avoid the cold. Maybe it was because of the bad angle, or because of the endless emergence of various musical fountains in recent years, in short, the Big Wild Goose Pagoda Music Fountain, known as the largest matrix musical fountain in Asia, did not amaze me.
The most important thing to watch the fountain is to grasp the right time. The current holiday crowd is quite terrifying. Generally, you have to go at least an hour in advance to get a chance to stand in the center or the front row. Tall people also have an advantage. There are fewer people during the day, but the effect is average without lighting. It is amazing at night! Remember to drink more water and hang up a small fan. The temperature is 3 degrees higher than the surrounding area when there are many people.
The Big Wild Goose Pagoda Fountain in Xi'an is located in the North Square of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda. It is 218 meters wide from east to west and 346 meters long from north to south. It is the largest sculpture square in Asia, with two 100-meter-long group sculptures, eight groups of large-scale figure sculptures, and 40 landscape water columns.
According to the information, the fountain has a water surface area of 20,000 square meters; the eight-level variable frequency square array in the eight-level cascading water pool is the largest square array in the world. Each level of the water pool has 7 levels of cascading water, which matches the 7 floors of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda. This fountain has a total of 22 independent water types, including the variable frequency square array (overwhelming sea water type), lotus flowers, 100-meter variable frequency running fountain, vast sea of clouds, seagulls spreading wings, butterflies in love with flowers, water and fire mist, and 60-meter high water spray columns, which are all the latest high-tech novel water types launched in my country; 4 fountains are ejected from the water in the large laser water curtain 60 meters wide and more than 20 meters high, fully burning and exploding at a low temperature at an altitude of 6 meters, which adds to the breathtaking momentum of the entire fountain.

It is the largest sculpture square in Asia, with two 100-meter-long group sculptures, eight groups of large-scale figure sculptures, and 40 landscape water columns.
It has the world's most luxurious green touchless toilets, maintaining the cleanest, the world's most benches, the world's longest light strip, the world's first direct water supply, the largest sound system and many other records.
The center of the North Square is the main waterway. Eight large fountains the size of basketball courts rise in a stepped manner. Each pool can spray water according to different music, and can also be combined to form a huge cascading water landscape and matrix fountain. The eight-level variable frequency square array in the eight-level cascading water pool is the largest square array in the world. This set of fountains has a total of 22 independent water types. The variable frequency square array (overwhelming sea water type) has lotus flowers; 100-meter variable frequency running fountains are vast sea of clouds; seagulls spread their wings, butterflies love flowers, water and fire mist, and 60-meter high water spray columns are all the latest high-tech novel water types launched in my country; 4 fire fountains in the 60-meter wide and more than 20-meter high large laser water curtain spray out of the water, fully burn at a height of 6 meters, and explode at a low temperature, which adds to the breathtaking momentum of the entire fountain. The music uses a high-fidelity long-range professional audio system to organically blend the sound, light, water, and color of the fountain. The north square of Big Wild Goose Pagoda is designed with nine steps, each step has five steps, and each pool has seven levels of cascading water, which matches the seven floors of Big Wild Goose Pagoda. People gradually climb the steps from north to south to show their worship of Big Wild Goose Pagoda.
In order to check out Asia’s largest musical fountain, we arrived at the Dayan Pagoda North Square in the evening.
We arrived early and took the opportunity to enjoy the night view of Xi'an, which was really beautiful.
The fountain is divided into three areas: a 100-meter waterfall pool, an eight-level plunge pool and a front-end music pool. It can be divided into three areas for independent performances or as a whole performance.
There are two performances every day from Monday to Friday at 12:00 noon and 8:00 pm.
There will be five performances on Saturdays, Sundays and other statutory holidays at 12:00 noon, 2:00, 4:00, 6:00 and 8:00 p.m.
Among them, the fountain equipment underwent routine maintenance on Tuesday and was shut down during the day.
(Speaker) You must reserve a seat 10-20 minutes in advance. There will be a huge crowd of people 10 minutes before the start.
The musical fountain is located in the North Square of Big Wild Goose Pagoda. After seeing so many square musical fountains, I still think the one in Xi'an is the most amazing, perhaps because it is the largest square fountain in Asia. It is not only large, but also has a unique design, which sets off the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, and is grand and gentle.
The music fountain in the North Square of Big Wild Goose Pagoda is the largest music fountain in Asia and the largest sculpture square in Asia. There are 2 100-meter-long group sculptures, 8 groups of large-scale figure sculptures, and 40 landscape reliefs in the square. The fountain rises and falls with the music, and the night scene is particularly spectacular. It has many world records, including the most luxurious green contactless toilet, the cleanest, most benches, and longest light strip, the first direct water diversion, and the largest sound combination. The fountain show lasts 20 minutes. There are two performances every day on weekdays, at 12:00, 20:30 (winter) and 21:00 (summer); there are five performances every day on holidays, at 12:00, 14:00, 16:00, 18:00, 20:30 (winter) and 21:00 (summer)
It is viewed during the day. If you go there at night, the scenery may be more beautiful.
It is quite different from the musical fountains in other places. The most impressive thing is that there is a fountain that is similar to the fire hydrant of the fire department, spraying very high.
The location is good, next to Da Ci'en Temple, and there are many tourists
The best time to watch the fountain is at 8:30 at night. It is grand, colorful and magnificent. We took some photos and decided to wait for the second fountain show in the evening. We squeezed to the front on the right side and sat on the stone to wait for the show. When the show started, I suddenly felt that the one-hour wait was really worth it. The water column was gorgeous and crystal clear under the colorful lights. With the magnificent music, the direction of the spray changed, forming various beautiful shapes. You can't see the whole picture from the side, but it is still shocking.
Don't get too close, or you'll get wet. The overall effect is OK.
The North Square of Big Wild Goose Pagoda is designed with nine steps, five steps on each step, and seven levels of cascading water in each pool, which matches the seven floors of Big Wild Goose Pagoda. You can gradually climb the steps from north to south. The North Square uses high-rise lights and plain lights. The spectrum analysis shows that the lights are very bright, which is visible to humans but invisible to insects. There will be no insects flying all over the square. According to the information, the fountain has a water surface area of 20,000 square meters; the eight-level frequency conversion square array in the eight-level cascading water pool is the largest square array in the world. There are seven levels of cascading water in each pool, which matches the seven floors of Big Wild Goose Pagoda.
We just watched the fountain and didn't buy tickets. The fountain is in the North Square outside the scenic area. The fountain time is: two performances per day from Monday to Friday (Tuesday, the fountain dance equipment is routinely inspected and closed during the day) at 12:00 and 20:30. On Saturdays, Sundays and other national statutory holidays, there are 5 performances per day at 12:00, 14:00, 16:00, 18:00 and 20:30. Before the time came, the fountain was already crowded with people. Sitting on the steps, the fountain will not splash on you. Although this fountain can be rated as the best of XX, I think it is just so-so, probably because Chang'an City is classical and the fountain is also gentle and elegant, without too many highlights, no! Not enough! Bomb!
It is known as the largest musical fountain in Asia. It occupies most of the North Square and the fountain show at night is very beautiful.
It's OK. I heard that the musical fountain is very beautiful at night. Unfortunately, I didn't see it. You need to pay for the ticket to enter the tower. There is nothing to see.
It was not as good as I thought. My daughter was tired after playing all day and left before finishing the show.
The Big Wild Goose Pagoda Music Fountain is located in the Big Wild Goose Pagoda North Square. It has a large area, so remember to go there early to grab a good spot.
Famous attractions in Xi'an. When you come to Xi'an, you must go and see them. It's free!
After going to see the Big Wild Goose Pagoda Music Fountain, I was shocked, shocked, shocked!
The night view is quite nice, the area is quite large, and the music and fountain match well. However, over the years, the fountain has not changed much. In the past two years, the fountain has been renovated and there is often no fountain to see.
The musical fountain at night is still very beautiful and worth a visit
It is said to be the largest in Asia. It is nice to look at but not amazing. You can't get too close or you will be drenched in water.
I went there during the day, so I didn't see the lighting effect.
The musical fountain show here is really good, but you have to calculate the time well because the show has time periods.
There were so many people during the Spring Festival that we couldn’t squeeze in when the fountain started.
This is only half open, not as big as a normal park, haha
I went to Xi'an twice and went to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda North Square. Unfortunately, I didn't see the musical fountain. I hope I will have a chance to see it in the future. One time I went there was on a rainy morning, and the other time it was sunny, but it was under maintenance and the square was notified that the music fountain would be suspended that day.
Recommendation index: 4 stars
There seem to be several shows a day. You can check the time online. I think it will be better at night with lights on.
It's very large, if you want to watch it in the front row, go and queue up early.
There were indeed too many people on National Day. The good seats were full of people early. The musical fountain of Yanta was particularly long. The fountain itself was very ordinary and the lighting effect was also average.
It's better to look at it from the front. It's recommended to look at it here.
The square is very big, connected to the subway, and has convenient transportation. It is worth a visit. The scenery is beautiful. After visiting the North Square, you can go to the South Square. Opposite the South Square is the Tang Dynasty City that never sleeps, and the night view is particularly beautiful. I highly recommend everyone to go.
The fountain I saw was really crowded wherever I went on holiday. It was quite beautiful.
To be honest, it's not that necessary to see it. Maybe we didn't open it the right way? I was very tired after walking all day, and the square was already crowded with people. The fountain effect was also average, maybe it won because of the area.
I remember that sometimes the small fountains in certain squares in Beijing are more beautiful than this one.
It's very beautiful, with the Big Wild Goose Pagoda in the background. You can go there early to reserve a spot.
I bought a ticket and took a quick tour. If it is your first time to Xi'an, you can still go and have a look. Learn about the history and culture before going, otherwise it will be a wasted trip.
The musical fountain, located in the north square of Big Wild Goose Pagoda, is the largest musical fountain in Asia. It is colorful at night and is a landmark of Xi'an. Let me talk about the musical fountain again. I personally think it is not that great, but it is still quite beautiful.
The musical fountain is amazing! But you must go there in advance, otherwise you can't see inside from the outside.
The music fountain in the North Square of Big Wild Goose Pagoda is not open every day. It is best to ask for the specific time before going to see it.
Friends who have been here said that it is best to come to the North Square to see Asia's largest musical fountain when you have time. So after we finished visiting the city wall, we took a taxi here. The taxi driver said that we didn't know if there would be a fountain show today. We were unsure. Because we didn't know the time of the fountain show in advance, we came here rashly. After getting off the car, we found that there were many people in the square. We just stood in front of the fountain and the fountain show started, exactly at 8:30. Oh, this really touched us. As the music became heavier and heavier, the fountain changed different shapes and the lights changed accordingly. The water jet sprayed into the air and fell heavily, and the sound was very shocking. Many people walked into the fountain to experience the beauty of the fountain up close. After 20 minutes, the fountain show ended. I didn't want to leave yet, and everyone didn't want to leave either, and they were still not satisfied.
"The largest fountain square in Asia" - Big Wild Goose Pagoda North Square. Looking around, the fountain pool is so big from front to back! It is worthy of being called the largest fountain square in Asia. After a while, cheerful music sounded, and the fountains moved: sometimes vertical bars, sometimes horizontal bars, and sometimes wild geese spread their wings. The rising water columns are sometimes high and sometimes low, and the water splashes are sometimes big and sometimes small. The water columns rise and fall one after another. The rain-like fountains and colorful lights complement each other, which is really beautiful. It makes the Big Wild Goose Pagoda at night more gorgeous and brilliant.
The feeling is completely different from the one I went there five years ago. It is no longer as spectacular and exciting as before. But the same thing remains: there are still so many people.
It's very lively at night, with music, lights and fountains!
It is very famous and has a large scale. When I went there, the music fountain was not turned on, but the lights shone on the Big Wild Goose Pagoda at night, which was still golden and shining, giving a feeling of Buddha's light shining on it. The night was deep and the Big Wild Goose Pagoda stood not far away.
There is a musical fountain at 18:00, which is very nice! Big Wild Goose Pagoda Square The Big Wild Goose Pagoda, built in 589 AD, is one of the landmark buildings in Xi'an. The Tang Dynasty monk Xuanzang once translated Buddhist scriptures here. Big Wild Goose Pagoda Square is located at the foot of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, a world-famous Buddhist holy place. It is the largest Tang-themed cultural square in Asia and has become a cultural tourist attraction for Xi'an people to enjoy, gather, sightsee and relax. After visiting, Professor Huo Songlin, a master of Chinese studies, happily wrote a poem: "The water, trees, and buildings of Tsinghua are new, and the flowers are like brocade and the grass is like a carpet. The square has the beauty of a garden, and it is a place for people to enjoy the leisure and enjoyment of the people."
I've heard that the Big Wild Goose Pagoda Music Fountain in Xi'an attracts a lot of people every day, comparable to the traffic of the West Lake Music Fountain in Hangzhou. I didn't expect that there were more tourists on both sides, and I could even stand in the first row in front. Later, I found out that the first row opposite would be sprayed with water!
The Big Wild Goose Pagoda Fountain in Xi'an is the largest sculpture square in Asia. There are two hundred-meter-long sculpture groups, eight large-scale figure sculptures, and 40 landscape reliefs in the square. It holds many records, including the cleanest, the most benches in the world, the longest light strip in the world, the first direct water diversion in the world, and the largest sound system. It can be called a pioneer of modern urban wetland parks.
The fountain has a water surface area of 20,000 square meters. The eight-level frequency conversion square array in the eight-level cascading pool is the largest square array in the world. Each pool has seven levels of cascading water, which matches the seven floors of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda. This fountain has a total of 22 independent water types, including the frequency conversion square array (overwhelming sea type), lotus flowers, 100-meter frequency conversion running fountain, vast sea of clouds, seagulls spreading wings, butterflies in love with flowers, water and fire mist, and 60-meter high water spray columns, which are all the latest high-tech novel water types launched in my country; 4 fountains are sprayed out of the water in the 60-meter wide and more than 20-meter high large laser water curtain, fully burning and exploding at a low temperature at an altitude of 6 meters, which adds to the impressive momentum of the entire fountain. The music system uses a high-fidelity long-range professional audio system provided by Xi'an Sanxin Audio Company, which organically blends the sound, light, water, and color of the fountain.
After touring the Terracotta Warriors in the afternoon, I returned to Xi'an Railway Station, took the city bus to Dayan Pagoda Station, walked 200 meters across the overpass and arrived just in time to catch the last fountain water dance show at 20:30. I would like to remind you to pay attention to the routine inspection and maintenance time of the water dance equipment and arrange your visit time properly.
The fountain at night is worth seeing, it is quite spectacular.
Recommended to visit this attraction, very cool
The musical fountain of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda attracts almost all tourists in Xi'an. The noisy crowd cannot match the spectacular fountain. The searchlight forms a fan-shaped "curtain" behind the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, reaching up to the sky. The fountain in the foreground jumps up and down with the exciting music, accompanied by the exclamations of "Wow!" from the crowd from time to time. Even the most rational people will get goose bumps. It is really exciting. For a moment, in such a peaceful environment, people can instantly travel back to the prosperous times.
There is the highest musical fountain in Asia in the North Square of Big Wild Goose Pagoda, which has several performances during the day and night. There is one at 6pm and 9pm, and I watched the one at 9pm. The Big Wild Goose Pagoda is really beautiful with the lights. The beams of light shining behind the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, combined with the historical background of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, feel like the Buddha's light shining everywhere.
Let's talk about the musical fountain. It was average and a bit disappointing. Except for the fountain that can spray up to 20 meters high, which is very impressive, there are no other special features. The combination of music and fountain can be designed a little bit, the rhythm is a bit discordant, and there are too few patterns. After watching it for 20 minutes, it was a bit monotonous.
Big Wild Goose Pagoda North Square is located in Yanta District, Xi'an City. It starts from the southern end of Yanta Road in the north, connects to the northern outer wall of Da Ci'en Temple in the south, extends to Square East Road in the east, and Square West Road in the west. It is 480 meters wide from east to west and 350 meters long from north to south, covering an area of 252 acres and a construction area of about 110,000 square meters.
The Big Wild Goose Pagoda North Square is built based on the fame of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda in the heyday of the Tang Dynasty, the long history of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, and the majestic and solid Big Wild Goose Pagoda. The buildings in the square are all antique-style buildings, and the grand and majestic buildings correspond to the simple and solid Big Wild Goose Pagoda.
The music fountain in the north square of Big Wild Goose Pagoda has "waterscape waterfall", "theme waterscape" and "viewing platform" at the south end. The north side square consists of waterscape fountain, culture and garden landscape. The music fountain square in the north side square is 218 meters wide from east to west and 346 meters long from north to south. It is the largest fountain in China and even in Asia. There are 22 kinds of variable frequency square arrays (overwhelming sea water type), lotus flowers; 100-meter variable frequency running fountains, vast sea of clouds; seagulls spreading their wings, butterflies in love with flowers, water and fire mist, and 60-meter high water spray columns.
The buildings in the Big Wild Goose Pagoda North Square not only inherit the grandeur and brilliant culture of the heyday of the Tang Dynasty, but also reflect the prosperous culture and science and technology of today's China. When you come to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda Square at night, you will hear music, fountains, colorful lights, people and voices. You can't help but feel the greatness and prosperity of the motherland, and the people living and working in peace and contentment.
After walking out of the museum and heading back in the direction you came from, you will reach the Big Wild Goose Pagoda North Square after a few intersections. The North Square is the Big Wild Goose Pagoda's music fountain square. My plan that day was to visit the Big Wild Goose Pagoda in the afternoon and wait for the music fountain in the evening. But when I got to the North Square, I saw a notice saying that the fountain system was being upgraded and would be suspended for 5 days... What a bolt from the blue!
When I went there during the day, I just felt that it was a big square. The fountain was partially open, but without the lights it lacked a lot of vitality. The square is large and spacious, but there are not many things to play. It is worth going there at night. There are lights, fountains, people and music in the officialdom, and the atmosphere will be very different. When I went there, it was the winter New Year's Day. I can only say that it is worth going, but it is not a perfect attraction.
The longest musical fountain in Asia, the effect is not very good during the day, but there will be a rainbow; it is very beautiful at night; but there is only half a show at 20:00 at night; before 18:00 during the day, there is one show every hour. Don't wait in vain
We arrived a little late and there were no seats in the front row, but I strongly recommend that friends who plan to take photos try to lean back and prepare rain gear, because the water droplets were so strong that those who stood too far forward got their clothes soaked.
The fountain doesn't last long, about twenty minutes or so.
I live nearby, so I had to go see it. It is said to be the largest in Asia, and it is indeed quite large, but a bit monotonous, with the same color all the time, and the fountain does not turn, but goes back and forth in a straight line. I was a bit bored by the end, so I left without finishing it.
We went to see the night view of the fountain, but I remembered it was eight o'clock, but it was actually nine o'clock.
I don't know why the time in Xi'an is so late, but it's only half an hour behind Beijing.
During the National Day holiday, there were so many people that my phone had no signal. So I didn't really see the good scenery.
There was nothing fancy. We were used to seeing the Zhejiang spray house. It felt too monotonous. We had to wait for two hours. Many people turned back after only five minutes. It was very crowded when we came back. There were police to maintain order. I didn't take any photos at all. I didn't feel like taking any.
It is really worth coming. The night view is really beautiful when you come at night. It stunned me. There is a pedestrian street next to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda Square. There are music performances everywhere at night. Going forward is the Tang Dynasty City that Never Sleeps. If you keep walking, you can reach the Tang Paradise. The whole is a straight line. I strongly recommend coming here at night. You can really feel the feeling of the prosperous Tang Dynasty.
After coming out of Shaanxi History Museum, I walked to Big Wild Goose Pagoda. The Big Wild Goose Pagoda North Square was not very lively during the day. I stood outside and looked at the towering Big Wild Goose Pagoda, then left for the Tang Paradise. But in the evening, I returned to the Music Fountain Square where there were many tourists. Of course, I would not miss the beautiful music fountain.
The performance time of the musical fountain is Monday to Friday: 12:30 and 20:30 (21:00 in summer), and the performance time on Saturday and Sunday is: 12:00, 14:00, 16:00, 18:00 and 20:30 (21:00 in summer). I think most people will choose to watch it at night, only at night can you clearly see the lighting effect. There are seats for watching music above the fountain square, but they need to be paid. I walked along the perimeter of the square to see if there was a gap in the crowd for me to get in, but unfortunately I couldn't find such a small gap at all. I was not at a high enough altitude, so I had to tiptoe to see it, but I found that the fountain square was so big, and the water sprayed in the middle had no lighting effect, so I quickly ran to the side facing the viewing seat, hehe, here I found a pad that could increase my altitude.
As the music played, the fountain was sometimes high and sometimes low, and kept changing colors. The colorful colors entered my eyes. I was a girl from the countryside. This was the second time I watched the musical fountain after many years, so I was very excited. Whenever the highest fountain sprayed, water drops would fall on the tourists in front like rain. Taking the opportunity when others retreated, I rushed to the front without fear of getting wet, enjoying the gentle touch of the fountain water on my cheeks, while appreciating the colorful fountains in different shapes under the lighting effect. At the same time, I didn't forget to take a few pictures, hehe.
After watching the show, I went to the snack street next to it to replenish my energy. There are not only snack streets with stalls next to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda North Square, but also some restaurants and restaurants. I like it best. After filling my stomach, I walked back to the hotel. It took about 40 minutes to get back to my residence. However, there were almost no pedestrians on the road I walked on, probably because it was a little late.
It is known as the largest fountain square and the largest waterscape square in Asia, with a water surface area of 20,000 square meters. Every night at 8:20, the musical fountain starts, lasting 30 minutes. As for whether it is as good as advertised, you can judge for yourself.
With the lights on, it is much more beautiful than during the day!
The fountain starts at 20:30. If you don't want to see all the heads, you should choose a favorable position in advance. Although the fountain is the largest in Asia, it only covers a large area, but the pattern is very simple. It is up to you to choose where to stand to watch. The fountain is divided into two sections. One is the horizontal one on the northernmost side, and the other goes to the front of the tower (the water column sprayed from this section forms a consistent piece). I sat by the pool and there were three layers inside and outside behind me. We squeezed out in advance because we were afraid that there would be too many people after it ended.
When traveling to Xi'an, you may not want to visit the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, but you must see the Big Wild Goose Pagoda Music Fountain. Known as the largest music fountain in Asia, it is the most perfect interpretation of the combination of ancient and modern times against the backdrop of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda.
Standing under the Big Wild Goose Pagoda Music Fountain, the experience will be even stronger. It is recommended that friends choose to watch the music fountain at night, the experience will be great~
When we got to the square, there were so many people. At 18:00, the music started on time and the fountain also started.
Each show lasts 20 minutes, so you have to manage your time well. There seems to be another show in the evening. I think it will be better at night, after all, the lights are on, and it is still quite sunny in the afternoon during this season.
The lights reflected the changing colors of the sky, and the fountains danced to the accompaniment of classical music.
I like the reflection in the pool more after the music fountain ends.
We really enjoyed the musical fountain.
This square is very big, and the musical fountain can only be described as big. I suggest not to go. There are too many people.
The Big Wild Goose Pagoda at night is quiet and undisturbed.
Not to mention the daytime, the Big Wild Goose Pagoda Music Fountain Square at night is one of the must-see attractions for tourists. It is at the foot of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, and it is best to see it especially in summer. However, after watching the fountain, public transportation may be very inconvenient.
After dinner at around 7pm, when we returned to the North Square of Dayan Pagoda, the entire fountain pool was already full of people waiting to watch the musical fountain show. There was also a sparse circle outside. By the time we got close, it was already three rings of human walls. The summer musical fountain show is at 9pm! In the hot air and the increasingly dense crowd, my son was almost soaked all over. Many people waited for more than an hour like us. When the show really started, I held my child and tried to lift him up. People in the front row stood up and raised their phones. My mother said something humorous and helpless behind me: "Don't look at the front, just watch the live broadcast on your phone!"
It is said that when the Big Wild Goose Pagoda Music Fountain was first built, it was the largest music fountain in Asia, but it is probably not the case now. I watched the music fountain show in West Lake, Hangzhou about two years ago, and I felt that the Big Wild Goose Pagoda Music Fountain did not bring me a special shock. Of course, in order to avoid the surging crowd at the end, we did not watch it to the end.

The guide I found said it would start at 8 o'clock. We arrived at about 7:50. The fountain was really huge, but it sprayed very sporadically, without any climax. There weren't a lot of people there either. Later, the security guard told us that it would start at 9 o'clock. We decided to give up the favorable terrain and go find something delicious first. There were special foods everywhere nearby. We went to find biangbiang noodles and rice noodles. We came back at almost 9 o'clock. At this time, there were so many people! Forgive me for using this word again and again, because I really can't find a better adjective. There were so many people. I squeezed in with my 60-pound little fat kid to watch. Fortunately, I met a kind sister and brother who let the child and I enter the first row, and everyone was close together. The already hot weather became even hotter. However, this Asia's No. 1 fountain is really not in vain, it is really beautiful.
The most famous fountain in the North Square is the longest fountain in China. There are regular fountain shows every day and a light show at the Big Wild Goose Pagoda in the evening.
The Big Wild Goose Pagoda is even more majestic with the laser lights and magnificent music. As for the fountain, it is nothing special except that it is long. There are not many patterns and it is not as beautiful as I imagined. If you stand in the middle of the fountain, the water column of the fountain will block the main character, the Big Wild Goose Pagoda. It is recommended to shoot from the side of the square.
