Magic Water Tour, Lima (must see)

The Magic Water Tour, which opened on July 26, 2007, is currently part of the Park of the Reserve. Initially, the project faced criticism due to its high costs and its significant redesign of a historically important park. Some people also objected to the idea of charging entrance fees for a public place. The revenue from these entrance fees was initially used to renovate the Municipal Theatre of Lima, which has since reopened. By March 1, 2008, the tour had welcomed its two millionth visitor.

The Magic Water Tour currently holds the world record for the largest fountain complex, featuring 13 distinct fountains, many of which are interactive. All of these fountains are illuminated at night, with various color schemes that change continuously.

The largest fountain within the Park of the Reserve, known as the "Magic Fountain" (Fuente Mágica), shoots water to a height of over 80 meters. Other attractions include the "Tunnel Fountain of Surprises" (Fuente Túnel de las Sorpresas), a 35-meter walk-through water tunnel; the "Children's Fountain" (Fuente de los Niños), an automated walk-in fountain; and a tunnel that connects the two sections of the park, featuring an exhibition showcasing recent public works projects in Lima. The "Fantasia Fountain" (Fuente de la Fantasia), which hosts regular laser and light shows synchronized to music, stretches 120 meters in length.
