8 Buckingham Fountain and Downtown Skyline in Chicago, Illinois

The Buckingham Fountain, which resembles a multi-layer wedding cake, was built in 1927 with pink marble in a French 18th century style called Rococo. The 1.5 million gallon fountain in Grant Park apparently represents Lake Michigan which is nearby. During light, music and water shows, 193 jets blast streams of water as high as 150 feet.
