At "Aqualand" near Cadiz, you can admire this incredible fountain that seems a Magical Tap floating in the sky while delivering an endless supply of water. It seems a Photoshopped picture but it's not. It is real, just a clever idea that makes possible this optical illusion.

UPDATE:
A reader have pointed out that there is another version of the same optical illusion in the Technorama science park in Zurich:

They sell smaller ones all over the place as garden fixtures here in the SE USA. I've seen them around for decades. I knew a guy that made them out of regular plumbing parts and sold them at flea markets.
