ISLAMABAD: The Capital Development Authority (CDA) claimed on Thursday that it has five cybernetic dancing water fountains functional in various parts of the city.

The fountains have been installed at Zero Point, Shaheen Chowk, PTCL Chowk and Zoo Chowk.

In addition to installing the cybernetic fountains, various intersections of the city were also decorated with colourful lights. The F-10 roundabout is one such intersection, where lights in different colours have been installed, giving commuters and residents a pleasant view.

The spokesperson said that the CDA had also introduced ‘flower towers’ in the city, which have been installed on all the major avenues, intersections and entry points to the city. The landscape along major avenues and major intersections are also being revamped.
