El Circuito Mágico del Agua, also known as the Magic Water Tour, is one of Lima’s prized attractions. The Magic Water Tour first opened up on July 26, 2007 and is located in the Park of the Reserve. At first, the construction of this project did not have a good public opinion due to a complete renovation of a historical park, the cost, and the design. There was also a huge controversy with charging the public to view an attraction. However, money from entrance fees have been used to help reopen and renovate the Municipal Theatre of Lima.

As of right now, El Circuito Mágico del Agua holds the world record for the largest fountain complex. The tour consisted of 13 distinct dountance, and a few of the fountains are even interactive. At night, this attraction becomes even more mesmerizing because there are lights that are activated. These lights are constantly changing color and schemes.

There is one fountain in particular that stands out, and this is the largest fountain in the park. The fountain goes by the name of “Fuente Mágic” or “Magic Fountain” and contains a jet that forces water to heights of over 80 meters. There is another fountain named Fuente Túnel de las Sorpresas, The Tunnel Fountain of Surprises, and is a 35 meter tunnel constructed of water. The Fuente de los Niños, the Children’s Fountain, is a walk-in activated fountain. It consists of a tunnel connecting the two sections of the park which contains an exhibition highlighting recent public works project in Lima.
