A very impressive fountain also known as the Four Parts of the World fountain. There are four figures holding up an orb standing on a large central pedestal which is immediately surrounded by wild looking horses and there is a large moat of water surrounding them and there are cute turtle sculptures in the moat. There fountain is in a large park that connects to Jardin Luxembourg to the north.
