About Magic Water Circuit

Situated in the Park of the Reserve in Lima, The Magic Water Circuit is one of the fascinating fountain complexes in the world. Locally known as El Circuito Magico del Agua, this collection of fountains has made a Guinness Book of World Record for the most significant water fountain complex. The circuit was inaugurated in 2007, and it is one of the large-scale municipal projects in Lima. Even though the circuit initially faced criticism due to the immense expenditure, but soon everything was sorted when the Park started earning money from the tourists. One of the most entertaining facts about the Magic circuit is that the water of the fountains can reach 80 meters. There is a 38-yard walkway located inside amid the fountains known as Tunel de las Sopresas which allow tourists to get wet by the jets. Most people with kids visit this fountain to have an enjoyable time. The wholesome family value provided is highly important for the genre of crowd attracted to the place. 

Most tourists visit the Park to see the Fuente de la Fantasia or the Fantasia fountain water show. In this segment, the fantasy fountain, which is over 130-yards long, starts a choreographed show involving music, lasers, and water. Most people love to groove to the tune of ABBA and Peruvian waltzes. The show takes place three different times in the evening to cope up with its immense popularity. As there is an educational area of the fountain complex, travelers learn about the installation and foundation of the water circuit pretty quickly.
