FORT WORTH WATER GARDENS

This fountain, or more precisely these water gardens, stretch over almost 2 hectares in the heart of downtown. Designed by the architect Philip Johnson, who also designed the Amon Carter Museum in the Cultural District and the JFK Memorial in Dallas, it is a succession of cascades, fountains and waterfalls that descend to the bottom. It is quite easy to get there on foot: just walk along the steps that blend into the geometric and jerky decor of the giant fountain. It forms a creek in the middle of the city.
