In the footsteps of Gilyarovsky
A fountain with an unusual design: it is crowned by a glass dome, which is the roof of Okhotny Ryad. At the top of the dome is the statue of St. George, created by Zurab Tsereteli. At the bottom is a stationary ring, similar to the clock face. Thanks to the movement of the dome, which rotates 360 degrees in 24 hours, it is possible to determine the time in any part of the planet. This fountain is considered the most popular among Muscovites and guests of the capital.
