Overview
The Magic Water Circuit, inside Lima's Parque de la Reserva, is a Guinness-listed world-record fountain park. Thirteen large fountains perform choreographed shows with music, colored lights, and lasers. The tallest jets reach 80m, and the 'Tunnel of Surprises' lets you walk inside arcs of water. Evening visits are most spectacular when lights and lasers paint the water jets in vivid colors, making it especially popular with families. Admission PEN 4. About 15 minutes by taxi from Miraflores.
Opening Hours
Wed-Sun 15:00-22:30 (closed Mon-Tue)
Travel Tips
Visit after 19:00 for the full lighting effects. You may get wet in the water tunnel, so bring a change of clothes or a poncho.
