Answer

Hi Earl,

Fontana is Spanish for fountain, but fuente is much more common, at least in South America. Fontana may be used in Spain? But that is just a guess.

Hope that helps!

Answer

Hi Earl,

“Fontana” means water spring. It could be a natural water fall wich emanates from the rocks or an artificial construction made with stones or bricks and pipes, from where water springs up.

I think it’s a good example of a DIY “fontana”
