Princess Diana Memorial Fountain
The Princess Diana Memorial Fountain is an exceptional monument which was opened in the year 2004. It is a memorial to the great Princess of Whales. The memorial fountain was built with phenomenal technology, Cornish granites and exceptional talent. The granites used in the fountain were known to be designed by the most advanced cutting machines. These machines were controlled by computers and thus gave a fine texture and shape to the granites. The fountain at the memorial projected the life style of Princess Diana.
The fountain at the memorial is the symbol of openness and qualities of the great Princess Diana. It is amongst the most serene and beautiful London attraction. The memorial of Princess Diana attracts millions of tourists every year and is also one of the favourite picnic spots of the Londoners. The water in the fountain is refreshed quite frequently. You can visit the memorial any time of the year and enjoy the delicious food offered at the restaurant sited in the memorial. It is located within the easy reach from the South Kensington tube station.
