The Grove in Los Angeles is a boutique
outdoor shopping mall located across the street from the famous Los Angeles
Farmer's Market. As you enter the
shopping mall, you can get an overview by hopping on a unique, double decker
tram ride that moves on a track back and forth through the shopping center.
This ride (which is free) is a fun way to see what's in store for your day of
shopping and dining. Built on an historic undercarriage from a 1950’s Boston street car,
it travels the ¼ mile track between The Grove and The Farmers Market in 6
minutes.
Every 30 minutes the
dancing fountain comes alive with songs and a water show in which the water dances in
rhythmic patterns to the tunes of famouse singers.
A 30-foot-long ellipse
of 32 pulsing water jets and an inner ring with eight arching and swaying
columns of water join together to create a water dance that reaches heights of 60 feet.
Another feature of the
shopping mall attraction is The Spirit of Los Angeles, a commissioned work by
sculptor De L’Esprie. The statue stands 18 feet high atop a 22 foot hand limestone
column and includes a bronze statue of a male and a female angel soaring skyward.
There, in the Grove, you can find everything what you want and need.

very interesting indeed
