It seemed only fitting that our holiday should end in the place it started! Schwarzenbergplatz. This jet fountain was built in 1973 to mark the connection of Vienna's first Alpine water supply. The tall statue (see another one!) in the back of the picture commemorates the Russian liberation of Vienna. 
At night, not only does the fountain continue with full power, but the entire square turns into a fantastic light show. The lights on the water change colour as well as the lights in the sidewalk! Its quite pretty!
A final goodbye to Vienna!
