Once a week, a spectacular 350,000 liter deluge of water is released from the resevoir behind the statue building through the many features on the mount topped by Hercules. This happens every Sunday and Wednesday afternoon from May-October and shouldn't be missed! Take a couple of hours to hike up the mount - then follow the water down watching it...

A very interesting work of art, spectacular views, good exercise climbing all the stairs, and if you can time it right, the waterfall which runs down the sides is (apparently) amazing. On a nice day, plan on packing a lunch or wine/cheese and enjoy the grounds.

Don't miss this sight. It is so unusual and whack. Like some ancient show. If you see it in action, you are lucky. I only wish I had more time here. Try to time the release of the waterfall. A must see. It really is a nice thing to visit.
