With its distinctive turquoise colour and gold highlights, the fully restored Ross Fountain was first opened in the Princes Street Gardens in 1872. Featured in the 1862 Great Exhibition, the fountain was built in France before being gifted to the city. It was repainted and reopened in 2020 with a permanently running water pump.
