Manvi Gupta When I first came to Abu Dhabi, newly married,
young girl........a little nervous, a lot excited.......my first night
here.....my husband walked me down to this wonderful place called volcano
fountain next to sea! With a light breeze blowing....and him next to me.......i
felt the world belonged to me now! That place, that night, that moment and that
feeling is forever etched in my heart! And so Volcano Fountain holds a very
special place for me!

Ramesh Menon Abu Dhabi - Clicks and Writes The Volcano was
definitely the landmark of Abu Dhabi, it was a throbbing heart with all the
fire-like lighting coming from it.
I remember during the first week of my arrival in Abu Dhabi,
my relatives took me to the Corniche and precisely to the volcano fountain.
This simple visit made me feel more at home and confident about coming all the
way to live in an unknown place.
I was truly touched and impressed by the huge monument and
its changing of colours. It was very similar to a true volcano, only that this
one was harmless and soothing to the nerves.
Year after year, I got used to my new life in Abu Dhabi, it
became my turn to take my guests and visitors to the volcano fountain so that
they can rejoice their heart and senses.
Walking up the stairs on the volcano fountain, was an
excellent exercise to old and young people, it was a family’s place, good for
walking as well as sitting, while you can inhale the sea-breeze.
There was a good distance from the road, so noise and air
pollution was reduced in the volcano area.

Ramesh Menon Abu Dhabi - Clicks and Writes I can say that
this land mark represented for new the vision of HH. Late Shaikh zayed bin
Sultan Al Nahyan to see our nation as high as the mountain , flourishing it's
water( generosity ) the nearby and far people. More importantly it resembles
the strength and unity of our house and it's deep roots from the desert where
the castle resemblance came from.

Narendra Kulkarni I also remember this icon. I used to stay very close-by on Khalifa street and it is used to be routine for me to visit Volcano fountain from time time.
