The water mirror of Bordeaux is the largest reflecting pool in the world, with an area of \u200b\u200bmore than 3,000 square meters. The reflecting pool is made of granite slabs covered with 2 cm of water, and a system allows it to create water and mist every half hour during the warm season. It is located along the river, right in front of one of the city&#8217;s main squares, with the palaces reflecting in: it has become the new landmark of the city&#8217;s urban regeneration that has been taking place since the beginning of the 21st century.<\/p>\n<p>The concept of this masterpiece of urban landscaping is a visual metaphor of a Venetian phenomenon called &#8222;L&#8217;acqua alta&#8221; &#8211; The high water (also called &#8222;Acqua Granda&#8221;), a phenomenon that occurs mainly between autumn and spring, when the astronomical tides are strengthened by the prevailing seasonal winds that prevent the usual ebb. The main winds involved are the sirocco, which blows north along the Adriatic Sea, and the bora, which has a specific local effect due to the shape and location of the Venetian lagoon. The water level in the city rises and the tears of the sea cover the feet of passers-by up to the knees or even higher.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<style

of the waters was imported to France and the &#8222;Mirror of water&#8221; is based on the principle of aquatic horizontality, especially at night, when the surface of the sea resembles a cobblestone. The monumental French work makes us escape from the anxious universal of the infinite and incurable beauty of the lagoon and places us between the water and the sky, in a space that recalls the ancient Roman nobility and their passion for water, accompanied by highly efficient technical achievements.<\/p>\n<p>Bordeaux&#8217;s Water Mirror is strategically located between the Garonne River and the Place de la Bourse, in such a way that it fully reflects the characteristic facades of the 18th-century buildings that surround it. The position of this new urban element generates an interesting visual game between the historical buildings, the square, the river and the surface sometimes reflective, sometimes covered with fog.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\">\n#foogallery-gallery-43264.fg-justified .fg-item { margin-right: 2px;

The combination of liquid and vaporized water provides refreshment to citizens on the hottest days. Because of these social qualities, the Water Mirror has become a major attraction for entertainment, play and relaxation, especially during the summer. The water mirror that inherits the French tradition of architectural use of water in outdoor spaces becomes participatory and compels people to observe city or sky reflections and the play of clouds and then gather them together in exploring the mystery of walking through the fog.<\/p>\n<p>Annual maintenance, water recycling for street cleaning and computer-controlled operations speak to an eco-conscious design that resonates with modern sensibilities. Even when closed in winter or for special events, &#8222;Miroir d&#8217;Eau&#8221; retains its charm, appearing as an empty surface, ready to change in any light or shade. Beneath the granite surface is an impressive technical room that houses the 800 cubic meter tank and the mechanical systems that drain through the 900 injectors that manage the unique water cycles.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\">\n#foogallery-gallery-43270.fg-justified .fg-item { margin-right: 2px; margin-bottom: 2px; }\n#foogallery-gallery-43270.fg-justified .fg-image {

The water mirror of Bordeaux is the largest reflecting pool in the world, with an area of \u200b\u200bmore than 3,000 square meters. The reflecting pool is made of granite slabs covered with 2 cm of water, and a system allows it to create water and mist every half hour during the warm season. It is located along the river, right in front of one of the city&#8217;s main squares, with the palaces reflecting in: it has become the new landmark of the city&#8217;s urban regeneration that has been taking place since the beginning of the 21st century.<\/p>\n<p>The concept of this masterpiece of urban landscaping is a visual metaphor of a Venetian phenomenon called &#8222;L&#8217;acqua alta&#8221; &#8211; The high water (also called &#8222;Acqua Granda&#8221;), a phenomenon that occurs mainly between autumn and spring, when the astronomical tides are strengthened by the prevailing seasonal winds that prevent the usual ebb. The main winds involved are the sirocco, which blows north along the Adriatic Sea, and the bora, which has a specific local effect due to the shape and location of the Venetian lagoon. The water level in the city rises and the tears of the sea cover the feet of passers-by up to the knees or even higher.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n[foogallery id=\"43256\"]\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The Mediterranean pathos of the waters was imported to France and the &#8222;Mirror of water&#8221; is based on the principle of aquatic horizontality, especially at night, when the surface of the sea resembles a cobblestone. The monumental French work makes us escape from the anxious universal of the infinite and incurable beauty of the lagoon and places us between the water and the sky, in a space that recalls the ancient Roman nobility and their passion for water, accompanied by highly efficient technical achievements.<\/p>\n<p>Bordeaux&#8217;s Water Mirror is strategically located between the Garonne River and the Place de la Bourse, in such a way that it fully reflects the characteristic facades of the 18th-century buildings that surround it. The position of this new urban element generates an interesting visual game between the historical buildings, the square, the river and the surface sometimes reflective, sometimes covered with fog.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n[foogallery id=\"43264\"]\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Magically, the mirror effect of the thin film of water can be suddenly interrupted by the appearance of an artificial fog that exceeds two meters in height. The combination of liquid and vaporized water provides refreshment to citizens on the hottest days. Because of these social qualities, the Water Mirror has become a major attraction for entertainment, play and relaxation, especially during the summer. The water mirror that inherits the French tradition of architectural use of water in outdoor spaces becomes participatory and compels people to observe city or sky reflections and the play of clouds and then gather them together in exploring the mystery of walking through the fog.<\/p>\n<p>Annual maintenance, water recycling for street cleaning and computer-controlled operations speak to an eco-conscious design that resonates with modern sensibilities. Even when closed in winter or for special events, &#8222;Miroir d&#8217;Eau&#8221; retains its charm, appearing as an empty surface, ready to change in any light or shade. Beneath the granite surface is an impressive technical room that houses the 800 cubic meter tank and the mechanical systems that drain through the 900 injectors that manage the unique water cycles.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n[foogallery id=\"43270\"]\n<h3>&nbsp;<\/h3>\n<h3>\u201cOglinda de ap\u0103\u201d de la Bordeaux-omagiu al apelor \u015fi cerului Mediteranei<\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Mirroir d\u2019Eau (Oglinda de ap\u0103) este o instala\u0163ie artistic\u0103 spectaculoas\u0103, creat\u0103 \u00een &nbsp;2006 de Jean-Max Llorca, Pierre Gangnet \u0219i Michael Corajoud, care alterneaz\u0103 \u00een mod extraordinary un efect de oglind\u0103 \u0219i aburire (fogging) artificial\u0103.
