I had forgotten that there was a replica of the Cibeles fountain in Madrid here in Mexico City. The photography and information in each of these links is much better than what I offer. Mexico. Madrid.
In the Madrid link, see especially how marvelous the fountain looked in its original, 18th century location, next to a low rise, tile roofed, 18th century building in a much more rural Madrid.
Axé.
