Tripadvisors tilnærming til anmeldelser
Hver Tripadvisor-anmeldelse går gjennom et automatisert sporingssystem før den legges ut. Dette systemet samler inn informasjon som svarer på følgende spørsmål: Hvordan, hva, hvor og når. Hvis systemet oppdager noe som muligens strider imot retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet, blir anmeldelsen ikke publisert.
Når systemet oppdager et problem, kan en anmeldelse automatisk avvises, sendes til anmelderen for bekreftelse eller gjennomgås manuelt av teamet vårt av innholdsspesialister. Disse spesialistene jobber døgnet rundt for å opprettholde kvaliteten av anmeldelsene på nettstedet vårt.
Teamet vårt sjekker hver anmeldelse som er lagt ut på nettstedet og bestrides av fellesskapet vårt for ikke å møte retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet.

This drab looking fountain is located at Circular Quay, opposite the train station and and ferry terminals. Don’t expect shooting jets of water. What you have here is a series of small pools running at street level along the pavement.
The fountain is highly decorated with detailed bronze figures but the metal is dark and greying and it’s heavily shaded by a row of trees so the water doesn’t sparkle in the sun or catch the light.
I think that it often goes unnoticed which is a shame because, up close there is a lot of lovely detail to be seen.
Each section is covered in a host of different native animals cast in bronze. Spotting the different Australian animals can be a fun game for kids. We picked out frill-necked lizards and long-necked cormorants, spiky echidna, scuttling crabs, and frogs.
The fountain was installed in 1981 and references the long since vanished Tank Stream, that provided the water supply for the British settlers when they first established themselves at Sydney Cove in 1788.

This is a beautiful series of fountains. So much to observe and soak up within the sculptures contained within it. Loved it.

Disappointing to see a wonderful sculpture of linked fountains that was not operating on the days we visited. It really is a masterpiece by Stephen Walker and features various Australian flora and fauna. There are a number of plaques, the best description being on the one that reads;

"1788
A stream flows into Sydney Cove. The European settlement of Australia begins along its sandstone banks. Soon drought strikes and storage tanks are carved from the stone. Hence the name Tank Stream.

The seasons pass

1981
The Tank Stream Fountain recalls mankind`s past dependence on this flowing stream and our links with life around the region.

Sculptor: Stephen Walker"

The Tank Stream Fountain is located in the area outside Circular Quay Railway station. It is a series of fountains featuring a variety of native animals, birds and plants. It is meant as a symbolic connection with the land and indigenous history. It also forms a link between ancient and modern European and Australian history and culture. The water for the fountain comes from the Tank stream which was the original source for the early European settlers. It is a beautiful sight and worth spending some time enjoying it.

The tank stream was an engineering marvel created through prisoner labor, which played a major factor in Australia becoming what it is today. This engineering feat is still in use today, albeit just to remove some of the storm water. The artwork at the Quay is still powered by the tank stream, as is the fountain off to the side in Hyde Park. Although the artwork is amazing, the story - quite literally - behind the artwork is even more so. Definitely recommend that you check it out.

We recently had family to visit from England and we had a walk around Circular Quay and showed them this fountain. Success - they loved it! Covered in Australian animals - a very interesting feature of Sydney.

The Tank Stream Fountain is a beautiful connection of modern and ancient, European and Indigenous Australian. The fountain, also called The Children's Fountain and the Herald fountain is only a few steps away from Circular Quay railway station, at the George street end of Alfred street, virtually under the overhead roadway. The fountain was built after a donation was made by the Herald newspaper owners to commemorate its 150 years anniversary. The bronze fountain is made up of several parts and there are several pools of water, also featuring some native plants and animals. The fountain sources its water from the Tank stream. This connection is a symbolic link with the land and the indigenous history. The Tank stream was the original water supply to the early settlers. This is a wonderful attraction and is highly recommended if you visit Sydney city. Additionally, the Rocks area is only a step away, the Harbour Bridge is there too, and a million other attractions are all around.

This a huge fountain, dedicated to the children who played at the tank stream.

In fact, there are about 8 fountains attached to one another. It is amazing and no one can take a picture of the whole fountain.

It is attractive. It had little fake animals and lots of water.

This is a must see!
